The Pinery Provincial Park 10K Road Race

Today was the Pinery Provincial Park 10K Road Race.

My time was 01:16:57.  It was slower then I would have liked but it was a lot warmer and hillier then I was expecting.
The day started out rough with me not being able to find my Nike tech shirt that I wanted to wear.  We finally found it in Steven's camera bag as I had packed it for my last race, the St Marys 10K River Road Run, as I was unsure if I was going to be too warm for a long sleeve short.  When we got to the Pinery it took forever to find a parking spot, and Steven had to drop me at the registration pickup while he parked.

 Since I participated in 5 out of the 7 Run Piker Races I received a handy back pack!

6K Run and 3.1Mile Treadmill Run

Last night I ran 6K in 48mins.  At least I am remaining consistent! 
This afternoon when I got around to my run it was 10 degrees and raining so I headed to the gym.  I did 3.1miles at a 4.7 average speed in 39mins on the treadmill.  The good thing about running at the gym is that I can watch Keeping up with the Kadarshians.  Tomorrow is the Pinery Provincial Park10K Road Race and it is suppose to rain.  Lucky I was able to pick up another pair of running tights from Mountain Equipment Coop today in case it is cool.
