That's my time for doing a 5K. Dawn, Liz and I participated in a walk/run that raised money for breast cancer research..a 5k started by the husband of a woman who died when she was 29 years old. Dawn and Liz did it last year, and I wanted to go along this time as well. For mile 1 and 2 we were walking as fast as we could, averaging a 14 minute mile (yeah, we're not Kenyan athletes doing 2-3 minute miles), but I wanted to do better than average a 14 minute mile, so on mile three I picked up the pace a little and jogged most of the remaining way...that way I could average it out to a 12 minute mile. Liz pulled in next, then Dawn a little bit later. Other than helping fund research, the best part was the T-shirt and free food after.
