RUNNING FOR BOOBIES!!!!
This race may have been the most rewarding! There was a TON of estrogen on the roads for this race. Around 2,000 women all running for a purpose, for a reason. All to support a great cause of Breast Cancer.
I was dressed from head to toe in PINK and so was every other woman there! :) Fantastic pink sea of women running around Mead Gardens. This course was extremely hard actually. Very hilly, a lot of turns and cobblestone at one point too. The hills are definitely what killed most people. But I trekked through them! I hope most people know that when running through hills like that, you should just put your head down and take LONG strides. Taking short and quick strides will just tire you out. So that's what I did. I think because of those hills, was what made this race feel the best.
I ran the ENTIRE thing AND I almost beat 30 minutes!!!! I ran 30:21 chip time. I started slow, of course, because of the pack starting out slow, and then I had a really great kick at the end, which definitely helped my time.
After the race, there was water, bagels, fruit cups, bananas, and they gave away little plants for all the women.
