My First 5K with CrossFit

My 5k results the last two times, I have done a 5k. 2006 UTSA Diploma Dash 23:56 7:42/mile run 2009 UTSA Diploma Dash with CrossFit 22:14 7:10/mile run 1:40 faster than 2006. To me...this is amazing.

FASTER!!! Can you believe it? I was so happy with my time and really looking forward to the results of more CrossFit and more running. My last blog was a really tough blog to post. But I started to figure out who I was...who I am...who I want to be. I want to be a happy athlete, that enjoys working out because it feels good, not because I need to prove myself to anyone. I want to be a good women, because that is who I am. I want to be a loving wife, because I love my husband with all my heart. I want to be a good friend, because that is why I am blessed to have so many friends in my life. In my ripe age of 37...I have come to realize... I just want to be...
