It was a cold, snowy morning for a run. We got a bit of a late start thanks to Jacob forgetting his bib number at home. But all went well. No official chip time just yet but according to the garmin I ran the Race to Wrigley 5k in 24:37!!! Under 8 minute mile the entire time - wahoo! Okay mile 2 average was a 7:59 but that is still under 8 ;) It hurt towards the end and I probably should have done more speed work leading up to the race but overall a nice result. I'll post official results once they go up.
Update - My trigger finger for the garmin was dead on my chip time. 24:37 for an average of 7:57 min/mile. I finished 29th in my female age division and 385/2009 overall. There were actually over 5000 signed up but the chip was an extra option. This 5k time is not a PR but my 5k PR is from 5 years ago. 5 years later I was only 13 seconds off so not too bad.
