Friday morning I did a very slow 5.2 miler in AM. This was really to conserve some energy for the races this weekend. Elliott and I did not work out in PM, we were both pretty poop!!!
Saturday I did the Law Day 5k its a small race to support summer interns and at one point after grad school(MS Counseling/HR) I wanted to go law school. The thought is still there. I almost placed in my age group it was posted that I was third and I stayed for the awards as it such a rear occasion that I would actually place. Well it turned out the positing was wrong. And the person that got third was only seconds before me. I pushed past her up a hill and was in front of her for awhile then she caught up to me. It was all my fault though we were next to each other about a 10Th of a mile out and I gave up pushing it in with her. the race was good though but I did manage to come in a how min slower than last year!! the course was the same as the Bunny Boogie starting .10 back,
8:00 1st mile
8:54 2nd mile with hill
8:34 3rd mile

That's a crazy weekend of racing! Well done on the near placing -- you'll get 'em next year.
Congrats to Elliot! That's a great loss.
Now that's more like it... The weekend & Dawn does her 2 races :-)
LOL - Race Queen You Rock!! Great JOB!!
2 races in one weekend. Yes, that sounds just like you!
Well done, and next time you'll get that 3rd place.
So you do a 5k and 10k on the same weekend and you want to go to law school too!!
I'm going to have to start doing a taper just to read your blog...
Awesome job on the 2 races Dawn. You're hard core! And congrats to your son on his weight loss. Keep it up!
Still don't know how you can race a 5K and then a 10K in the same weekend, but .. you manage. I was real impressed with your 10K. Nice even miles with a big kick at the end. You took off a little fast on your 5K, but hung there in the end. Nice weekend.
Good running, Dawn! I think there is a double-marathon in your future. You're always inspiring.
Congrats to Elliot as well.
Nice job on those races--too bad they had to raise your hopes on your placement on that 5K. Next time!
It's never too late to go back to school--I hope one day you can go!
Wow, somebody races doubles! These are fun, i remember that time:) Way to go!
Nice race & run!! Woo Hoo!! GREAT JOB!
Kudos to Elliot!
