Running Raw

[unbent]

Our local Hospital sponsored a 5K run today which is the second one that I have run in since going raw. The previous was in November just after I started on my raw journey. During that race I ran the 3.1 miles in 26:36 minutes and was 399th out of 837 runners. That is the first time I have run a distance race since high school back in the early 80's. :rolleyes:

During the race today I ran the 3.1 miles in 24:41 minutes and was 237th out of 1084 runners. I contribute most of the improvement to my raw diet. It probably didn't hurt that I knocked off more than 10 lbs. But I contribute that to raw foods as well.

I can't wait for my 100 mile bike ride next month to see how my endurance has improved since last year. Woohoo.

Congratulations!! I do a good bit of distance cycling, too. Last year, my first year raw, I knocked off 2 to 2 1/2 mph on my averages, along with 37 lbs. I'm looking for more improvements this season. Keep up your good work! And, as spicyfull says so eloquently....RAW, RAW, RAW!! :D
