I also managed to fit in another race, Arm Lake 8k trail race. I placed 6th place in the female category, with a time of 45:56! It was quite the trail & a workout with the final part of the race up hill to the finishing line. I even passed 3 people, who started out ahead of me, in the last few kilometres. That is an exhilarating experience!!
October saw the decreases in daylight hours as well as any free time I thought I might have. Transporting my 3 children back & forth from dance, volleyball & hockey has left me very little time to "fit in" a run. The cougar sightings have also made me rethink night running as well as changing my much loved long run route. Bummer!! Guess I'll be using more of that dreaded treadmill. Sigh!!!!
I am still looking for some more runs to enter but there are not many around the Vermilion & Lloydminster area. I plan to enter the half marathon in Red Deer in May 2013!
