January 8th - Chiller Challenge 5K in Jefferson

Today was the Chiller Challenge 5K in Jefferson GA.  It was threatening rain off and on all day; in fact right before the start of the race at 3pm it did come a little shower but stopped before the race started.


Thanks to my friend, Sandra Alford, I was able to finish in under 40 minutes!  She paced me and kept me going and if it weren't for her I would have walked alot more than I did.  Here's a picture of the two of us approaching the Finish Line............

Not a real pretty picture of either of us; we looked kinda like drowned rats at the end of the race!  All I can say is this is better than not finishing.


After the race Sandra and I went to Waffle House up near I-85 at the Pendergrass exit.  Sure enjoyed that part!  Always the best to have down-time after a race with a good friend!


Its been a lazy and relaxing evening at home since I got home.  Mark cooked a good supper; baked chicken, baked beans, and potatoes.  I had half of my chef salad from the Waffle House to finish eating plus I added a half of piece of chicken breast.  YUMMMMM........so good!


Oh my weight held its own this morning at 138.6 lbs; sure am happy about staying in 138 range and not going back up!  Of course for my exercise today I got 3.1 miles at the 5K race.


Adios amigos, that's it for tonight!!
