I did it!

I ran the HBC Race for Canadian Athletes 10k today! My first 10k and I did awesome! I ran with my friends Sharon and Elaine. Sharon runs 10k on a regular basis and Elain has run 4(!) marathons. I thought for sure they'd leave me behind around 3 or 4k but I was able to keep pace with them for the whole thing. I finished in 1:04:35. Paul didn't even get a picture of us crossing because he wasn't expecting me for at least another 10-15 minutes! There were athletes from the Canadian Olympic teams at the finish line to give out the medals which was very cool. If I only I could figure out how to add a picture I would post a couple.
I'm going to lounge by the pool and enjoy the rest of my Canada Day Holiday. Happy Canada Day to any canucks out there.
