OK, I have officially started to push the finishing times down!  Today was the Fairhaven 15K.

Such a great race...especially when I PR.  My finishing time was 1:19:46  (previous PR 1:21:53) giving me a 2 minute PR!  So excited!
It was a lovely day, sunny and cool day.  I started out strong and had some fast splits, a few in a the low 8's.  8:12 was my best mile.  My pace fell off a bit near the end.  I ended up at 8:58 for mile 9.  Still, much better than a lot of my recent races.
The post race mimosas and breakfast were delicious too!   So, the day was great.  Still.....I think I hear speed work calling my nameSpeed work and an enormous dinner.  Speed work, an enormous dinner and a beer are calling my name.

Speaking of a speedsters,
Marty Gross was 2nd in her age group today in 1:23:26! 
Sunday came in ahead of me in 1:19:11 and Julie was in just after at 1:22:12!
Great job everyone!
