Great Pumpkin Challenge 10K

Since the marathon, I only ran a couple of times and they were short runs.  Then I had a 10K race on Saturday - The Great Pumpkin Challenge.  What happens when you don't train for a race?  You run slow!  Yes, I have still been going to the gym 5 days a week.  But if you want to improve your running, you actually have to run.  So I am working on building my mileage again because I've got big plans for next year and I want to have a solid base before I start training for all those events.  Here's Team Gabby Gabs at the race:

I'm still struggling with nutrition though.  I eat healthy the majority of the time, but I cannot say no to dessert.  And I am not that person at the party saying, "I'll just have a tiny piece of pie."  I'm that person creating a sampler platter of all the desserts and going back for seconds.  So, I am working on some much needed changes in that area and I'll let you know if I ever get some self control.
