Personal Pike's Peek

Ran that 10K (at Pike's Peek) this morning and DAMN I'm pretty sure I broke my personal record for the route. Don't feel great after, but it was totally worth it. Also it was the first time I was able to sprint at the end of a 5+ miles race.

And I almost vomited.

It's a COOKIE!

I did my first run home from work today! And my toes survived! It's a little hard to navigate through people but I enjoyed seeing the city change.
