5k Race in Fresno

We went and ran a 5k race and did awesome! Natalie placed 3rd in women's and 6th overall and Nic placed 4th in men's and 7th overall and there were 200 plus racers that day so not too shabby! We beat our PRs and had a great time! The trail was rolling hills and beautiful views. The trail system was great! The race route was not marked too well so the top runners, including ourselves, ended up running 4.72 miles (thank goodness we all had our garmins on and calculating the distance/time) lol but the race directors apologized to all of us and are fixing result times. But it was a great day to get out and run and regardless we ran a fast/strong 5k, 7k, and if we had run the 10k with our pace we ran that day then we would also have finished fabulously and in the top three in that race as well!:) So yeah to another awesome race adventure! Cant wait to get out and do it again!

Nats running goals, plus she wants to do some trail races and some FKT's and hopefully if all goes well a marathon by next summer:)
