This past weekend I ran in my second race. I joined 40,000+ runners to conquer the bridge run in Charleston, SC. Whit and I decided we wanted to run the race together. I am so happy that we ran together pretty much the whole time. It was great to have a running buddy. We kept each other going and high fived at the top of the bridge! I started loosing steam after mile 5 and she surged ahead.
Break Down of 6.2 miles
Mile 1 9:04
Mile 2 10:07 (the bridge)
Mile 3 10:16 (yep, still on the bridge)
Mile 4 9:26 (downhill and flat road)

Mile 6 10:07 (loosing the steam)
Mile 7 2:06 (on pace for a 9:06 mile. I found the energy)
