Days until the NYC Marathon: 27
This year's Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure was a lot different than last year's! Last year Jen was still in treatment and I was a little bit of an emotional wreck. It was also nice and cool last year, and that was not the case in Central Florida today! According to my Garmin at race start it was 73 degrees, sunny, and 94% humidity. Basically not my kind of racing weather. Our original plan had been to run fast enough to break 30 minutes for the first time ever. It took me all of about 2 minutes of the race to realize that was not happening for me that day! I couldn't breathe and swore I was having an asthma attack - not good since my inhaler was in my car in my driveway. I muscled through and pushed as hard as could and still came up with a 30 second PR so I was proud I was able to do well for all the survivors in my life. I really do enjoy the races at UCF since I feel like I spent so many great years of my life there!
PR - I've had a PR at this race every year!
The new theme this year was "Do you tutu?"and we were more than happy to join in! Leah and I got to the race early to pick up our packets and then sat in her car whipping up a few tutus for the race. Michelle met up with us and we all walked around checking out vendor tents. I think we all looked adorable in our Adidas Breast Cancer shirts and our tutus!
We sure do!
