Have you ever heard of Swisher Iowa? Neither had I until recently. I decided I needed to do another 5k to keep myself in the groove with running. A friend who does races almost every summer weekend suggested this race. Swisher is about 15 minutes from where we live, so I decided to go for it.

The kiddos were excited to do the kids fun run 400 meter dash. They were awesome. So far, every time I race, I am reminded just how slowly I run. I am truly a beginner. I think that I tend to forget that I am so new to this...and that I had a baby 5 months ago..and expect my running to be awesome...it is not awesome. The awesome thing is that I can finish a 5k. I need to keep reminding myself of that. My goal was to just do better than the last time (one month ago), and I did. I came in at 36:42...about one minute faster than my first race. I can totally do this :0)...next race 35:00
