Today Skyler and I ran in the Get Fit 5K in Placentia. We did this race last year also. We both kicked butt this year. Skyler finished with a time of 22:20 (that's close to what it is but I don't have the exact time) and I finished with a time of 23:06. Skyler was fifth in his age category and I was second (missed first by 3 seconds). I improved my time by 3:20 minutes. Last year I walked for about 30 seconds after the big hill, so that was a huge bummer. This year I was determined not to do that and accomplished my goals. After we got home I went swimming at the gym (I wanted to bike but Skyler is in the process of putting a Cat Eye speed-reader thing on it). I swam 64 laps in 29:45 minutes. Not bad. Three more week until St. George. We both did an awesome job today!

I am so happy for the both of you. You really did kick butt. I was thinking about checking your blog all weekend long. I can't believe you almost got 1st. Oh man... by 3 seconds that's a bummer, but your time is so great and the fact that you beat your goal makes you a winner!
