Hopefully the smell of pancakes will bring me "home" strong.
Have a great weekend everyone!!

Hills? Seriously?
I just found out the route for my 5k tomorrow morning, and there is a massive hill!! Ack! But at least it's near the beginning. The rest will be either partially downhill, or mostly flat. I will have to take my camera and try to get some good shots of the craziness (hopefully it won't slow me down too much- ha ha). Oh, and the guy in charge said there were about 900 people last year, so it's bigger than I expected. I'm just hoping for a PR, and maybe- just maybe- I'll finish under 30 min. I wish I had thought about it sooner, and I could have done a test run- drat! Oh well, it's really all in fun, anyway. I don't expect to get a prize or anything.

Have fun on your 5K. I ran my first race with a hill on Mother's Day. It was scary, but fun and suprisingly it didn't really mess with my time. I guess the downhill made up for the uphill!
Thanks for commenting!
Good luck on your 5K!
The 15K I ran a couple weeks ago has a giant hill around mile 8, and the race director always posts a sign at about the midpoint of the hill that says I love hills.
This makes me think about strangling the race director and takes my mind off the hill a little bit.
Think happy thoughts all the way uphill!
how was it?
HOW WAS IT?!

Thanks for the love, everyone. The big hill was brutal, but the downhill parts were totally fun. I definitely need to change up my routes to get in more hill-work.
