2nd Best 5K Time Ever!!

Over the weekend, I did an evening 5K and achieved my 2nd best time ever!!  I am still slightly shocked.  I improved my time almost 3 minutes from just over a month ago!!!  That's crazy insane.  Who does that?  I guess I do.  What's even crazier is that I had worked out 2 1/2 hours in the morning.  I did my regular Saturday morning routine of Spinning Class followed by Turbokick and I still managed this unbelievable time.  Who does that?  Me.

In my summer of exercise, it's amazing how losing 15 lbs (so far!) and gaining 15 lbs of muscle (so far) in the month between the 5Ks can make such an dramatic impact on the time.  Now, I am chasing times from back in the day when I was thinner and fitter.   I have only 6 more minutes to shave off my 5K time to get a new PR.  Off to the gym!  There's another 5K in 5 weeks and I'm hoping to shave off a couple more minutes.
