Avanti and I had Signed up this 5k race down at the clear lake on Nov. 12th called “Run through the Brooks”. It was the most painful 1st race for me. The 1st mile feels like never ends. Avanti already dropped me and charging ahead after 1st mile. While she gradually disappeared from my sight. I held on and ran through the finish line. Surprisingly, luckly me, a 32:32 gained me a 3rd place in my age category! All the suffers suddendly all paid off at that moment. It was really an encouraging for me to move on to train for my 1st half and think it is not all impossible!
