Race Day


I am happy to say I ran my best time ever. This is a race i run every year and i usually place in the top four in my age group..don't be too impressed it is not a big race. Maybe 200 at most.. This year i ran the 5k in 24.39 minutes..that is an 7.55 minute mile. 

I know it has to do with the change in my eating habits. I remember in the past when i would be half way and my breathing would be more labored. This time i was all clear. I think but do not know this for a fact that maybe since i don't eat dairy maybe all that mucus is cleared out.

Also the breakfast i had helped..oatmeal and as much as i wanted..with a banana..when i hit that last hill i was full of energy. Unlike in the past when i was drained from my low carb diet...

I could not stay for the awards since my puppy is still feeling bad and i did not want to leave her for to long.. so i am waiting for them to put up the results. I will let you all know later how i did..even if i didn't place i feel like today was a personal victory for me and my health..
