Race With Reason: So last year's Cherry Creek Sneak was my first timed race since I began running. I set for myself a modest but realistic goal of sub-30 minutes. I came in at 26:30 (8:31 pace), and that was when I realized, I can do this running thing! I've been a race junkie ever since. This year, my goal was to meet or beat last year's 5K pace, only doing the 5-Mile. As you can see, I cleared my goal pretty comfortably. (Same distance 9 weeks ago: 43:35) I'm one happy chica today! #running #fitsnap by run2themountains
