First 10K Win

Home Research Resume Recreation Rock Climbing

Today was a pretty good day. I got my first win in any foot race at the Heart2Heart race at Coffee Regional State Park. Luckily, they were staggering the race starts. Due to that and a miscommunication I was able to start alone in my heat. I wound up finishing with a 47:11 for the 10K distance. My results can be found here: Results.

I gave it a good effort. Obviously there is a lot I want to do better and I am always looking to improve even when I win, but the win is a nice confirmation of my ethos in training and in life. I want more experience competing under pressure and finding my limits, so this was a great way to do that. This race also comes about a month after me swapping to an entirely plant-based diet. Hopefully there are many wins like this to come!
