Up early this morning to participate in the first annual Kettle Krush 5K to benefit the Salvation Army. The race started at the entrance of Harbor Park and ended at home plate. Although it was cold, it was great running along Waterside and it was really exciting to end at Home Plate! I'm still hoping to improve my running ability; however, I finished in 39:35 which was my best 5K Race time yet! I am a goal setter but I am also a realist with severe sinus problems (which affects breathing) and recognize the fact that 39:35 may be the best I can do. The fact that I can get up and actually participate and finish is a pretty big deal! 4 years ago I participated in my first 5K and finished in close to 45 minutes; therefore any thing under 40 minutes is an accomplishment!
