On Oct. 29, 2011 (yesterday) I ran my 11th race for the year. Interestingly enough, I started running races just six months ago, and started running seriously 9 months ago.
Yesterday's race was the Bearcat 5k, helping raise money for the Kearney High School Special Education program. While my finish time was less than stellar, (no pr), the conditions (while freezing cold) and atmosphere were all great. I even got to run "with" some friends, too. Ok, they all ran WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY in front of me and I followed in true Zumbarunner fashion, but it was still cool.
Running these races helps reinforce in myself the reason why I'm continuing to add races yet this year and will up the ante and do even more next year. I'm committed to doing this for the long haul.
Zumbarunner...Whether shaking it or running it, I'll cross the finish line!
