This morning, Amy and I ran in the Lafayette YMCA’s Sleigh Bell Run. It was well organized, and there was a good turn out for a 5k race in December – about 250 people give or take. I did reasonably well for me – 28:13 for an average of 9:06 minutes per mile. Really, though, if I’m going to run in these things, I probably ought to get in the habit of training a little bit — seems like lately I’ve been running once or twice a month, then running in a race.
Before this year, I’d never run in one of these events. This year, I ran in the Indianapolis St. Patrick’s Day race, the Flora Hog Jog, the Lafayette Zoo Run Run, the Bloomington Half Marathon/5k (I only ran the 5k), the Pumpkin Push, and now the Sleigh Bell Run.
