Running Re-Cap: Half Way Mark

So as I posted in the New Year, one of my New Years Resolutions is to run a 5K every month for the year minimum. I've managed to complete 5K's or 4-milers these past 6 months and feeling great about them. I would say it's been a bit of a roller coaster of a time but after every run I think back and go "well accomplishing that makes me feel great".

Favorite run so far overall: Hot Chocolate 5K

Best personal time: Roosevelt Island Spring Fling

Most orgainzed race: I would have to say NYRR races overall as they have gotten orgainzation down pat between packet pickup and race day.

Best post-race: Giants Run of Champions was awesome since it tied in with the Health & Fitness Fair afterwards.

Best goodie bag/post race offerings: Hot Chocolate 5K, umm hello chocolate and other treats to dip into the chocolate :)

Favorite shirt: Giants Run of Champions shirt because it fit best and was not just a cotton t-shirt.

Least favorite race: Although my personal PR was set that day, the Roosevelt Island Spring Fling race was my least favorite due to lack of organization and running by myself for the first time.
