• comments: the boy ran his first 1k! he now wants to know when and how he can get his next medal. i did a lot better than i expected, seeing how large the race was. saw the family at the top of the hill a few times, which was encouraging. i didn't recognize anyone else there. raced against someone i didn't even see and beat her time. came in 6th in my age group (there were over 100 in the age group alone). i need to remember that i'm good at this and i keep getting better at it.
