Summary of 2013 events

Am not running any faster, as can be seen in the finishing times of the events since the Cherry Blossom last year. Found some new ARRC running buddies at the same pace group, we had a great time training together for the MCM 2013. Also went to cheer on some ARRC members running the Grant-Pierce Indoor Marathon and 50K in July, and ended up volunteering to be a time-keeper/lap counter. It was an interesting experience! See if you can catch a glimpse of me at 0:52 in this youtube video of the event.

I registered for the Army Ten Miler in May, not realizing that the event was just the week before MCM. I ran hard at the ATM, completing it in just past 2:00. However, I might have strained my legs, did not feel good starting out at the MCM the next week and had a really tough time towards the end. Was too bad, especially since training throughout spring and summer went so well. Ah well, there is always next year.
