Running, Loving, Living Virtual Race Report

January 27, 2012 by MCM Mama 7 Comments

Happy Birthday and Happy Blogiversary to Toni at Running, Loving, Living. In honor of both, I ran her 3.5 mile virtual run. It was icy outside and I’ve been wearing Vibrams lately (pretty sure that’s not a good shoe choice for ice…), so I decided to do her race as speed work on the treadmill. The only truly notable part of the run was mile 2 was my fastest mile ever at 7:25 and I did it barefoot!!!

I was just a little sweaty!
I had a little road rash on my feet at the end.

Thanks, Toni, for giving me an excuse to push myself!!

I’ve survived the most stressful parts of this week.  Just two more meetings today, the Pinewood Derby tomorrow, and then I can focus on our annual Holiday beer tasting that we are having tomorrow night.  You know there will be pictures from that.  ;o)

    Congrats on the virtual racing. Can you translate that barefoot speed to outside barefooting? I mean, when the weather gets nicer. Cheers!
