Last year I ran two 5k races, the starlight run and the color run. The starlight was my first ever race, and I prepared for weeks, and the work paid off. I ran it at a 9:45 pace, way better than I had run in training, and I was on cloud 9! So I signed up for another run, the color run. Every kilometer of this run they throw a different "color" on you and you end up with these crazy colors all mixed up. It was fun, but I wasn't as prepared and ran it at a 12:15 pace.
Already this year I've already completed my first race, the Shamrock run. My first 8k which is just under five miles. I tried to train for this race, but the week prior was on vacation in LA so didn't train as hard as I could. My goal was to run it in under an hour and came in at 56 mins. I was super stoked.
I'm signed up for the Doggie Dash (05/11) a 2.5 mile run/walk with my dogs, which I'll probably walk since my puppy will only be 4 months old. I'm also signed up for the starlight run again (06/01) so I'm excited to do that run again. My ultimate goal for races this year is Pints to Pasta which is a 10k (09/08). Although I don't really want to run more than a 10k I just want to reach my goals and go from there.
