midnight moon 5k run

rewind to august 27th/28th, 2010.....

it has been raining.....with thunder and lightning, too.......

the midnight moon 5k run at alta canyon rec. center starts at midnight.....

we carbo load at dinner with some yummy pizza.......

take a nap at 10 pm to have enough energy to run at midnight......

head over about 11:30 pm......

me, ashley, marlee redford, libby griffieon, and mark line up in the very front on the starting line......

kayla porter, dayne porter, and megan henry were there, also.......

the gun fires and we start off.......FAST!

we started out too fast and i thought......"there is no way i can keep this pace up going up the BIG hill"......

i didn't!

but, i didn't do too bad.....

i knew if i could just keep a decent pace on the hill i could relax a little at the top on the flat.....

half way through it started to sprinkle rain.....ah, that feels good....

i was doing great! i even thought, "i am going to get a time of 21 minutes"....
that's how good i felt!

well, i didn't get 21 minutes, but i put out a good time of 25:28 which was good enough to get me 2nd place in my age group!

marlee took 1st place in her age group!

she booked it up the hill and there was no way of catching her!

mark had a great race considering he had been sick wednesday and thursday!

with not much in him he did it under 30 mins.! good job!

ashley and libby met their goal of under 30 mins, also! way to go girls!

ashley, marlee, and libby

yeah, we did it!!
