Did It! 10 K - ran all the way

Smiling through gritted teeth. Now let me sit down on that rock and have a rest. 

I suffered from pre-race nerves and couldn't sleep last night. I only got 2 hours, if that. I threw up the first cup of coffee this morning, so tried another with a slice of toast. Threw that up too. The curry and chips went down well a few hours later though. Nothing like a 6 and a bit mile run to work up an appetite.

I don't know my official time yet but I do know that I ran quite a bit faster than my training pace. 

Remember:  “You have a choice. You can throw in the towel, or you can use it to wipe the sweat off your face.”
