Tour de Pain

I did it! I ran my heart out at the Tour de Pain in Jacksonville this past weekend (what better way to celebrate 40 years of me than to run my legs as fast as they would go?) and I killed it! The tour is three races in less than 24 hours: 4 miles at the beach (on the sand) Friday at 7:30 p.m., a 5k on Saturday at 7:30 a.m., and a one mile sprint downtown Saturday afternoon.

My goal for the 4 mile run on the beach was 40 minutes. Time: 38:18.

My goal for the 5k was to break 30 minutes, but specifically 27 minutes. Time: 26:52.

My goal for the 1 mile sprint was 9 minutes. Time: 7:49.

I placed 17th out of 62 women in my age division. I'm pretty darn pleased for sure!
