Polar Dash 5k {2013}

What better way to start off the new year than with a 5k? Worked for me last year didn’t it?

This year I started it off with a friend, it was M’s 3rd race and her first timed one. I helped with motivation and pacing and on this course which is pretty much uphill turn around then down hill, she hit a few new PRs:

Fastest Mile: 12:44 (ever including training runs with me)

Fastest 5k: 41:20

I’m so stinking proud of Her! Not only did she achieve those 2 PRs but she also ran the first mile (which included the frist major incline) without stopping! We have been training to run 3/4 a mile and walk 1/4 a mile. I don’t think we walked a full 1/4 of a mile the whole time!

What a fun and COLD way to start the new year!

  1. Wow, it looks really cold where you are! Congrats on running another 5k! It’s great that you’re keeping up with all this running 🙂 I still remember when you first started training for the first 5k and now you’ve ran so many!
