Virtual 5k
I also participated in a virtual 5k this am. http://www.runsforcookies.com/2013/01/runs-for-cookies-virtual-5k-race-report.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+RunsForCookies+(Runs+for+Cookies)&utm_content=Google+Reader&m=1
Basically I just ran 3.1 miles on the treadmill and took a picture and sent it in.
It was a pretty slow 5k for me cause I was pacing myself for 5 miles not 3. So I did the 5k took a picture and than fished another 2 miles.

New Year
The Friday after Christmas I took the boys on a train ride to CA. My mom had major back surgery and I went out there to help her. She got released from rehab the day I arrived so the timing was perfect. She is doing a lot better than I thought she was but she needed a lot of help with everything so I was really glad we went out there.
The train ride going out there was a bit overwhelming and exhausting. The train got delayed due to track repairs so instead of 17 hours we were on the train for 20 hours.
Beside helping my mom and dad we had Christmas with the Craig's which was a lot of fun.
My sis Amy and I ran a race on New Years Day. It was the Los Gatos Resolution run. It was 5 miles and the first 2.5 miles was straight up hill. It was so much fun to run with Amy. I had never ran with anyone before and she really pushed me. I had to talk for about 3 minutes up the last part of the hill which really discouraged me but overall we finished in about 53 minutes which I am happy about. After the race we had celebratory ice cream and went to the beach.
The train ride home went a lot more smooth and the train was right on time.
Here are some pictures from the trip.

Santa Run 2012
Friday morning I woke up super early with Jeremy and Kyle and headed to the start the Santa Run. I walked/jogged this run last year and this year i have been training and this was my first 5k that I was going to run the whole thing. I was nervous. I had nightmare about the run the night before. I knew i could do it phically but mentally I was stressing.
We we got to the start and I got my race packet, put on my Stanta Suit and was ready to go. It was cold (like 34*), I knew that was toing to be the biggest challage for the run cause I am use to running in my very warm gym. Next they call for all Santas to come to the start. I was really suprised at hiw few people were running, there was only about 150 maybe 200 Santas running. We did some fun warmups as a group and than the count down and I was off. I had some technalical diffically with my music and could not be bother to fix it so I ran with out music. The course was out and back twice. It was cold and my face was freezing but I was running and I was not going to stop till the finish line. At the first mile my phone told me in my ear that it was a 9:45 min mile. I was so shocked to hear that. I had never ran faster than 10:45 miles. I got worried that I was not pacing myself. But I felt great. I was pasing people this year, last year i got lapped and this year I was running. I was proud of myself. I kept running and gave it my all. I crossed the finish line at 25:18. In one year I took 20 mintues off my time. I am hooked. I am looking for my next race. I never never never ever thought I would say this but I am a runner and I enjoy it.
I placed 13th over all the women and 2nd In my age group.
Let me say that again cause It feels so good to say it
i placed 13th over ALL the women and 2nd in my age group.
