America's Run 2010

Today was the first of my 2 5k's. It was America's Run 2010, and it was at Cowboys Stadium. It was a really cool event, and you got to finish on the 50 yard line! However, there were at least 5,000 people in the 5k! It was just packed the whole entire way. It was really hard to try and set a pace. The website says I finished in 34:07, which is 3 seconds faster than I thought!! :)

They also had a half marathon. Troy Aikman ran it. He did it in 1:49! Not bad Troy!

Here's Troy before the start...


So, here is the start of the 5k...crazy!


Here I am starting...I'm in the very middle with a pony tail! :)



Daddy and Madison got to wait for me to finish, so they wondered around. Here is Miss Madison outside of the stadium.


And, here are Mommy and Madison after the race. Madison is playing with my finishers medal.

So, next weekend is the Remember the Ten run. It's going to be a lot harder than this one, because it's more hilly AND I will have the jogging stroller. I'm sure it will be just as fun though!
