So I'm happy to report that I have officially taken 12 minutes off of my time from last year. I haven't gotten a lot of positive feedback on that change, so maybe it's not really that big of a deal. But I'm still happy with my progress

I haven't been paying such close attention to LJ lately. What race?

Talk of such things has me itching to enter a race. I haven't actually done any running or biking where "time" was a factor since high school. I haven't done anything physically competitive with a large group of people since high school. I miss it.

arun251 and I were tossing around the idea of training for some marathon in October. The farthest I've ever run is probably 10 miles or so. The fatherest I've ever run competitively is 10K. I think it's a pipedream to think we could train for a marathon in a single summer (and keep our day jobs and other interests). As long as he's deluded, I'll go along for the ride with him though because I'm a follower.

Every year the City of Champaign holds a 5K run/walk as part of the 7/04 festivities. This is the second time I've participated; however, it's not so much in the spirit of competition unless you count self-competition. I finished somewhere in the middle, which met my goal of not finishing last :)
