Whoops! I forgot to post about the Joe Kleinerman 10k that a bunch of us ran on January 7. I had been waiting for my friend K to post a picture she took of a bunch of us but I guess I’ll post it later! Anyway, race day was beautiful! Despite being early January, temperatures were in the early 50s and it was a lovely sunny day. I actually didn’t push myself too hard b/c I wanted to get in additional miles at the end so I could keep training for the half marathon in late January. I really enjoyed the race, just one loop around Central Park kept it interesting and everyone seemed to be in a great mood because of the weather. After crossing the finish line, I said hi and congrats to M + J and then ran back to the 4/5 train at 59th and Lex. I spent most of that trip running behind another runner which helped me keep pace and motivation. In the end it was about 9 miles, right on track! I did the 10k in 56:50, about a 9:10 pace. Not my best, but I’m glad I saved energy to get in the extra mileage. Once we were all showered, it was off to Sunburnt Cow for Bloody Marys to celebrate M’s birthday!
