first 5K in a loooong time!

I was a runner in HS 10+ years ago, so this has basically been starting over for me. When I started running again a couple months ago, I wanted to complete a 5K in less than 30 minutes. Well, this morning I blew my goal out of the water and finished in 25:45! I got 1st place in my AG (20-29), and my friend that I ran with got 1st in hers (30-39) besides the overall female winner. It was a very small race, so there weren't a lot of super serious runners, so it was a nice ego boost and a great way to jump back in to racing! Now I am so excited about my 10K in July :)
