They say, "Practice makes man perfect". I don't know about that but I can definitely say that practice makes running better. Since my first 5K race (which I ran in 28:48 mins), I have been practicing a lot. My most recent 5K run was in 26:30 mins which is more than 2:18 mins better than the first race.
Also, I have managed to increase my running distance. I used to run 2.3 miles (one round of the Staring lake in Eden Prairie, MN) when I ran my first 5K race. Right now I am running around 3.0 miles and since the 5K race is approx 3.1 miles, I am confident that my race performance will be much better this time around. In my first race, I was tired around the 2.5 mile mark and had to drag myself to the finish line at a very slow pace. I am hoping that I will be able to avoid that this time around.
See you on race day !!!
