If you know the race, it&#8217;s a 4-miler that starts at the stroke of midnight on the new year.  It&#8217;s a great experience, so fun, and I ran it with Elizabeth, her boyfriend Chris, and her sister Martha.  It was Martha&#8217;s first race ever!<\/p>\n<p>Here are my Garmin stats:<\/p>\n<p><iframe width='465' height='548' frameborder='0' src='http:\/\/connect.garmin.com:80\/activity\/embed\/137992127'><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This is my first race, much less RUN, since the Philly Marathon in late November.  I ran with my legs feeling slightly drained about 1.5 miles in!  However, I felt generally good.  I was running with or around Martha for most of the race, letting her set the pace.  She was great!  She&#8217;s a natural talent like her sister, having only taken to running very recently.  We did 8:46s with a final mile at an 8:07 pace.  Martha was a superior sprinter and took off before seeing the finish line as we rounded onto 72nd Street!<\/p>\n<p>I was feeling soreness after the race, which is understandable but I was still a little surprised.  Ah well!  I look forward to getting running back into my life in the new year.  Not there just yet!<\/p>\n<p>Photos coming soon.
