5k Aftermath

I ran the 5k in 28 minutes, which is not shabby for a first race. I was not expecting the race to be as fun as it was, I was dreading it actually. But when the day came K. and I drove to Millenium park, there were a ton of people there - less people dressed as Elvis as I though there would be. And we ran the race - towards the end, when we hit the 3 mile run I started sprinting, that was cool. I'm doing an 'intermediate 5k race training schedule' now for the Pumpkin Patch race at the end of October. After that I'm planning on spending the winter and early spring training for a 10k - probably the 'Wrigley Early Start 10k run' in Lincoln Park.
