So yesterday my three sisters and I participated in the Lost Dutchman Arizona 10k.
What can I say- we sucked. But that's okay, since we weren't exactly competing. We split up at the beginning of the race since we all started off jogging. I jogged a full mile, then began walking for another mile. I jogged on and off the rest of the time. Near the end we all met up again. I finished off the last of it by running.
I ended up placing 550th of 604 with a time of 1:37:31, which is an hour after the top placer. Yikes.
There were a lot of hills so it was kinda difficult, especially for us untrained beginners. But I finished the damn thing and it was actually pretty fun.

Since I just did the 10K yesterday, I decided to make today my rest day. Therefore, Mondays will be rest days for my training. Tomorrow begins the tough stuff. Tomorrow I plan to do one mile, walking and jogging each quarter. We'll see how that goes.
