New Year New Goals

Well this year started out with a first run at Love Em or Leave Em Greenlake 5k.  My running lovah was Jess Graham, and we operated under “On The Wings of Love”  yes cheeseball and fabulous!  I also ran a 5k in Dec. The jingle Bell in Port Orchard, and was looking for another 5k, as my goal this year is to race more short distances, add in more strength training, and pick up my pace!

It was really great racing with all the lady birds that day, as people were all over the time charts, and being around 1 to 2 minutes between runners, there were a lot of us, most folks had a Oiselle rabbit in their sites.  This was the case for me anyway,  and it felt like we were a huge racing flock or circle, so awesome, similar to sat runs with a group at Point Defiance Trails..  the connectivity is awesome. 

We finished 4th in our age group, groups were combined ages so we were 72 years young”)  1st 2nd and 3rd in our division were also Oiselle teams, so it was an age group sweep, saweet!

After the race, we all decided brunch was not a good idea, nerves, and tight stomachs after going all out in a 5k, no thanks.  Sbux at corner… ahh perfect, then over to HQ for some post race chat, got to get a sneak peak of some new spring fashions coming out, love love, can’t wait,  But best of all, racing and hanging out with the flock!
