I'm so excited!

Full disclosure: I ran this race because I saw last year's race results and really fast women in my age group didn't show up. I thought there might be a chance to place and I've needed an ego boost. Well, I was right! My previous PR was 26:35, and today I got a 26:05. That was good enough to give me 1st place in my age group! My Garmin said 25:59, and those 6 seconds are making me crazy! So now I've got to run a December 5k to try to find 6 more seconds.

Congrats!

As a (sort of) funny aside, I do the same thing - checking the results of prior years to size up the competition. We did a 5k a few months ago where I thought I could easily win my age group, the times were a lot higher than my PR and what I typically run a 5k in. Well I did get second in my age group, but it turns out the course is almost a quarter mile long, hence the higher times!
