Less of me to move......

On May 20th I set a personal record by finishing the Concord Rock n Race in 32:25.....6 minutes faster then my slowest time from this race.  How did I do that?  Well, after the race a friend of mine shared this factoid with me:

If you're already trying to shed some pounds, here's more incentive: Research has shown that, on average, runners get two seconds per mile faster for every pound they lose. So, for example, a 10-pound weight loss would shave about one minute off your 5K race time.

I can honestly say I believe this since I have recently taken off 24 pounds!!!
