Porridge. I made a big bowl of the old fashioned kind of oatmeal this morning. It turned out to be the right thing to eat before the YMCA ten Killometre road race. I was able to beat out three people as I neared the finishing line for a race time of 57 minutes and 57 seconds. I’m supremely ecstatic with my time. Doing the race in under an hour was my aim and I did it.
The races started in the stadium, looped around through residential areas before ending once again back at the stadium. Besides ten k. there was a five k race and a half marathon. I’m already looking at other longer races, here in PG, I can do in the near future, before winter.
The PG Road Runners have a schedule on their website. I’m more interested in the trail runs rather than the road races. Races like the Mad Moose half Marathon and the Popes Peak adventure run. I think running on trails and up mountains will be more fun than running around town.
