Ms Stampede 5k

Yesterday, I ran the Ms Stampede 5k. My very first 5k in Texas. I wasn't really looking forward to it because:

1) I despise 5k's, I don't have any self-control and start way too fast and by mile 1.5, I am ready to throw in the towel

2) The weather forecast called for very cold and windy weather

I ran it anyway because I had signed up for it and because it was for a good cause!

It turned out to be a good race. Despite the cold and extremely windy weather, the run was pretty enjoyable. We ran against the wind for the first half of the race, which was really tough, but we had the wind helping us move faster on the way back.

I was pretty happy with my time (22:48) and best of all, everyone else was slower, so I won the race! :)
