5k recap and beach trip

Holy huge looking boobs! That is with a sports bra.

Fresh and ready to go in the picture above.

Myself and one other gal (she is in the above picture I see) were in the back. We were keeping pace with each other till about the last mile when she started hanging back more. I thought she was going to stay with me the whole time and I envisioned being able to turn around and urge her to catch up to me so we could finish together but she ended up being a few minutes behind me so that idea went poof. I was finisher 112 out of 113.

The course went long which really annoyed the poop out of me when I had gone 3.11 miles which as you know is the 5k amount. I hit lap at the 3.11 mark so I had an accurate time since my race time would be for longer. I used hubby's garmin to keep track of my pace and the distance traveled so I was able to do the above using it. It really did help because when I found myself going a teeny bit slower I was able to try and increase my pace. I felt a lot better once I finished as you can tell from the pictures below comparing 2013 5k end picture with this 2014 one. The weight difference between the two is only about 20 lbs. What a difference in the jaw line!  Plus I look like I am about to keel over in the 2013 picture. 

My official time is 64.13 on a course of 3.3 miles. My garmin time for 3.11 was 60 min on the dot. My time last year was 69.23. No matter what time I take I beat my  last year which was my only goal. That is why I said I didn't care if I came in last. I just wanted to beat my time last year. :)

I wanted to go to the beach afterwards but that idea got tossed after I saw the radar. I discovered I had battle wounds when I got home. Blisters on both feet on the side of my big toes and heel rub spots also. I felt the pressure on side of toes but never dreamed they were blisters. I was sore for two days afterwards and I still have the blisters today. (Tuesday)

Sides of big toes

We hit Daytona Beach on Sunday instead. My sore ass was dragging but we promised the kids and I wanted to go. We haven't gone in over a year (feeling fat does not go well with the beach) 

Some pictures for your viewing pleasure of my adorable kiddos

We were planning on taking this home. Problem
