Results are in!

Finally, my results are up on Active.com. My official chip time was 57 minutes, 14 seconds. My goal was to run the 10k in under an hour, which I did, so I'm stoked. I now have some new goals, and started working toward them today with a (slow as hell) 4 mile run.

50%, is that a passing grade?

With three days left before the 10k on Sunday, I felt a 5 mile run today and tomorrow would make sense, taking Saturday off. Some gnarly Achilles tendon pain has kept my runs shorter lately, but I felt good today, averaging 8.5 minute miles for a total of 42.5 minutes. I jumped on a site that calculates Age Graded Scores, and it turns out that was just over 50%. Basically, it takes me twice as long to run 5 miles as the world reigning champion, which is fine with me. For now.
