On Sunday, I ran an unexpected 10K. I had planned on the 5K. The 10K was starting at 7:45am and Saro went and got in line for that one around 7:35. The 5K was starting at 8:15 so I was just hanging around - I saw 2 of my coworkers and my aunt.
At 7:50, they had called for EVERYONE to line up, so I figured they were just starting early. Not once did they mention it was just the 10K. I couldn't have been the only one who started early!
So, I start running and I knew it was the 10K when we got to the END of the bridge (2 miles from the start). I've done this 5K 2 times before and we always turn around in the middle of the bridge.
Anyway, I did it!
Distance: 6.2 mi
Pace: 11:43 min/mi
Official time: 1 hour & 13 minutes (Map my run was way off and I did NOT go swimming in the Hudson River!)
Saro finished in 1 hour & 2 minutes and at exactly 10 min/mi!
We had fun and the weather was perfect.
LOL, you didn't swim in the river? Map My Run apparently thinks you did.
