5.6

Me and my awesome friends, Brittany & Susie, ran a 5.6 mile trail race on November 5th!  It was almost all hills and rocks, but we did it!  With no injuries!  Hooray!  Before this, the only length I'd run for a race was a 5k.  It was fun to challenge myself, training the past 6 weeks or so!

I came in 7th in my age category, but I think it was only out of about 10 or so...  ;)  I had an 11 minute mile, which is good for me, since all I wanted was to be under a 12 minute mile (which had been my general trail running time, with all the hills and roots and rocks).
