Two new PR's and 4 great races

I have been running so much lately. My miles have increased by about 8 miles a week and during a race I can really tell.  I have been running weekly Indian Drills with the running club and that has helped increase my time so much!!!

About a week ago I ran three races in one weekend..it was a tad crazy but very fun and worth it!!
I started with the warrior dash-
Beth is my running partner and we put in about 16 miles a week together!!! Thanks for putting up with me friend :-) 

Then ran Glow run
6 miles and two races later and very little sleep and I was ready to run the Kilbride Classic. My summer goal has been to run a 5k in under 25mins...well I have accomplished that goal. I set a new PR of 24:45!!! It was an amazing feeling to see that all of my hard work is paying off!! 

 
Me with my 3rd place award 

This past weekend I ran the Pride Run in Chicago. This was an awesome run that was a ton of fun. I agreed to wear a tutu to this run....I am not sure what I was thinking but the tutu helped me was able to PR- my new 10k time is 56:13- that is a 4 minute improvement from last month :-) I need to give a shout out to my new friends for letting me run with them- Thanks Joseph and Carmelo!!
