First, thanks for all of the encouraging wishes! I had a great time and finished exactly where I expected- 26:47. Although, my H disputes that, lol, because there is a picture of me crossing the line at 26:47 and I didn't start right at the front of the line. But since I forgot to stop my Garmin, I'll just go with the professionals.

Anyway, it was super humid and sort of like running in a blanket. But it's Maryland in June, so I certainly wasn't unprepared. Plus, we were on vacation in Alabama last week, where I learned about running in REAL humidity. How do you southerners do it??

So, on to my next race- a 5k in early September and the 10k Pittsburgh Great Race in late Sept.
