Gate River Run 2014

My favorite race that I participate in on an annual basis is the Gate River Run 15k.  This is the national 15k championship, and it just gets bigger each year.  The course is nice, but very challenging (2 bridges).  I was a little concerned because I my leg had been bothering me ever since a 5k the weekend before (The Tiger Trot- in which I PRd w/ a time of 24.05)   I probably should have sat out of the Gate, but I really didn't want to because it's my favorite.  I ran pretty well and ended up with a time of 1:22:32, which is my second fastest time for this race.  I managed to be in the top 10% of women to cross the finish line, so I got the 10% finisher's cap.  Even though my leg didn't bother me during the race (thank you Bayer Back and Body), it has been bothering me ever since.  So, I'm resting it for the next few weeks.  Hopefully this will be a speedy recovery.
