Check out the short movie of my finish at the Sunshine 10k Saturday morning. Look for me coming to the finish line on the left side. Notice that the runners are finishing in a baseball stadium. We got to run in the back side of the field and then run to homeplate to finish! The quality is somewhat limited because my friend is taking the movie behind the homeplate netting and so you are seeing me through that. After a few runners come through the finish, I come up on the left. I have a white, short sleeved shirt on and a jacket wrapped around my waist. As I finish I turn around and do a "high 5" with the guy I ran with. Then my friend Laura says "Kelly!" and I wave. Do you see me?
This was the 7th time I've run this race and I recorded my personal best time, a sub 57 minute race for 6.2 miles! I finished 20th out of 40 in my age group of 40-49, and there were 250 women runners total. Next is a 15 miler moutain trail run in February, 2007. I'm already training for that and really enjoying trail running. It's very addictive. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Way to go Kelly! Such a dedicated runner. Did you ever get trail shoes?
Nope, not yet. I've just not gotten time to get back out there to try on shoes. I may end up having to buy something from a catalog.
