Breaking 3 Miles

Sorry again for the infrequent updating.  I had a reader jonesing for an update so I knew I needed to get on it immediately.  Don't want to anger my loyal fan base.

I'm going to keep it short with mostly course and paces because it's already 11 o'clock and I've got an 8:15 hearing in the morning.

Pace/Distance:  Roughly 21 minutes.  

Special Guest Star Aaron went along with me on this run.  As always, fantastic company and I'm very grateful that he joined me yet again.

Check that distance again.  3.1 miles (according to Google conversion search, that equals...5K)  Yup, I decided that I'm going to do my first 5K this weekend.  Before I decided I was going to sign up for public humiliation, I wanted to make sure I could actually cover the distance.  Hopefully being able to do it under 11 min/miles will assure that I'm not the very last one across the finish line.  So I'm doing the Court2Court 5K which is a fundraiser for Iowa Legal Aid.  I figure since I spend so much of my work time going toe to toe with attorneys from Legal Aid, I should balance the karmic scales by participating in a fundraiser for them.  So, it's official, I can't back out now.  If you're in Des Moines, sign up to run in this with me or come out and cheer me on as I lug my fat ass up the hill in front of the Judicial Branch Building.  See you there.
