they say it's your birthday...!

Happy Birthday to me!

It only seemed fitting to go out and run a local 5K to celebrate turning 27, so I did the Resurrection Run over in Nassau Bay this morning. It went so-so. I finished in 33:24 (10:46 miles) which isn't bad, but isn't great. My knee hurt from the beginning, though the ache lessened as the race went on. I think it may be time to go see a doctor about it. I think I've mentioned this before... It doesn't affect me greatly, but it's had a fairly constant ache since sometime last fall in the middle of marathon training.

Afterwards, I met Gavin at Challenger Park to give our Yuri's Night 5K course a once-over. Looks good at the moment, a couple wet but avoidable spots. Here's hoping for a dry couple weeks! The race is April 9.

Now I'm off to soccer practice, followed by a birthday bath with the stuff I bought from that Lush store in Whistler. Then a lazy afternoon capped with a trip to the Cheesecake Factory tonight! Mmm.
