WRC 5K and 10K

7 Feb: WRC (Winter Racing Circuit) 5K
21 Feb: WRC 10K
------------------------------------------------------
WRC 5K--630 ft of climbing, neighborhoods through Ogden. I took a singulair the night before, but I didn't take one the morning of the race. I felt my windpipe totally constrict in the cold air. It was awful. The temps were in the low 20's with a bit of a breeze. I just tried to hang on for 3 miles. 3rd in age group of 44, 12/231 women.

WRC 10K--1100 ft of climbing, neighborhoods through Ogden again, though going north this time. This time I took a singulair the night before AND this morning. It helped a LOT, and the temps were still in the low 20's. But I have this terrible cold bug, and I paid this price this morning. I have not felt that bad after running in a long time. The 10-miler is even more hilly than the first two races. I think a sub-8:00 pace is a good goal! 3rd in AG of 41, 12/212 women. Same as last time. Weird!
