I ran in a small 5k race this morning at our city park. It was nice weather, but I wasn't in a very motivated mood. I did ok and apparently finished in second place in my age group, but that may be because there were only two of us. I have no idea and they haven't posted the results online.
The amazing thing was my next door neighbors, Monty and Hannah Lutzker. About a week ago Monty thought about having Hannah run the 5k. She had been hiking a lot and competing in some short triathlons. Hannah is only six years old.
Hannah did amazingly well. After only a week of training, she ran the 3.1 miles in about 33 minutes, or less than 11 minutes per mile. I knew she was pretty, but now I know she's an athlete. I'm going to have to keep training to stay ahead of her.
Here's a leftover picture from my recent half marathon. I like the pictures from early in the race because I tend to look a lot happier and more comfortable. And yes, that is the same shirt.

Way to go, Hannah! (This is where I don't want to admit my 5K times prior to 2011.)
