I ventured out to Brooklyn yesterday for my first group training session (GTS) with the Brooklyn TNT crew. This session also happened to be their second 5K run test - my first 5K run test ever!
The course started on Prospect Park West between 12th and 13th, up to Grand Army Plaza, then a right into the park and along the trail till 15th, then a right out of the park back onto Prospect Park West down all the way to Grand Army Plaza, a right back into the park up to Garfield. I finished in 29.54!
I am beinging to not mind the longer runs too much. It is getting easier to get into the zone :-).
Have some time till D.C and am getting excited.
Thank you for checking in and for your support.

A big, loud THANK YOU to all (including my very generous anonymous donor) who have helped me get closer to my goal. YOU ROCK!!!!!!
Training is coming along well. While I have yet to venture in to the city to run with the TNT group, I have been running around my neighbourhood and Liberty State park. It has been a wonderful adventure. Have meet a ton of people and experienced Jersey City in a different way as I venture through the Van Vorst Park and Hamilton Park areas. This weekend I will be running my longest distance yet - 10 miles!!!
Again, thank you all for your support and for supporting this worthy cause.
Much Love
Rachael
