It was great! It was my first 10K so I was focused on finishing without walking. The 10K consisted of 2 laps around the campus, wheras the 5K was only 1 lap, so it was a little disheartening to see people cross the finish line to finish, while you are crossing for lap 2. I started off slow to run with my sorority sister until she stopped to walk around 1.5 miles, plus she was only doing the 5K, so then I just sped up to see how many people I could pass before I finished. It started raining a little around mile 5, so I felt like a real runner even though my thighs were screaming by then. It was such an amazing feeling to finish, the University of Arizona marching band was playing, people were cheering, and I could see the finish line, and I just had this tremendous burst of energy and looked past the sore thighs to finish strong. I still can't believe I did it. I had actually managed to almost catch up with my friend who was far in front, and finished 2 minutes behind her. It was a great accomplishment and I can't wait to do it again in January.

Thanks for asking!
