Louisville Triple Crown of Running- COMPLETE!

One goal for 2011 has been marked off the list--

**February 26, 2011- Anthem 5K
This was just a brisk Saturday morning walk but was a good time.  They had to change a bit of the course for flooding but the weather was perfect, about 35 degrees when we started and didn't rain a drop.
Finished in 50:41  8,156 place out of 8,723

Finish line of 5K
**March 12, 2011  Rodes City Run 10K
I actually did this race last year and LOVED the course.  This year was just as great.  The weather was a bit warmer by the time we finished but was still a chilly start being as we started downtown. 
Finished in 1:44:31  7,616 place out of  7,958


Finish line right around the corner!
 **March 26, 2011 Papa John's 10Miler
We were really worried how the weather was going to turn out for this one.  There was a threat of rain and I knew 10Miles with wet shoes would be miserable.  Fortunately all the prayers were answered and the weather was perfect!  We conquered those hill of Iroqouis Park and were met at the 8Mile marker by runner extrodinaire, Matt Fillipps.  He brought us Panera bagels and encouraged us the rest of the way.  He actually compelted the race and came back to the course to walk the rest of the way with us!  
Finished in 2:54:02 6,823 place out of 6,925


Finish line with my race partner, Erin

Finish line with Matt

Now we're gearing up for the Mini Marathon on April 30th!!  So exciting to have my Mom joining us for that one. 13.1 Miles here we come!
