Today was the final race in the Athlete's Closet Winter Series. This one is a 5 mile race instead of a 5K. Chris was helping a friend move, so I headed out on my own. It's in a neighborhood in WC that has some "rolling hills", as the race director called it. The whole race is pretty much up a hill, down a hill, up a hill, down a hill. When the wind was blowing head-on it was cold and miserable, but when you turned a corner and couldn't feel it, I was hot.

I ran 48:42, which I was happy with. I wanted to run under 50 minutes. Last year I ran 47:12...I don't remember it being so windy though! I was third out of seven in my age group (the second place girl was seven minutes faster!) and 56th out of 73 runners. Not too shabby.
