I finally did it. Something I've wanted to do for several years. Last Saturday I ran my first 10k. Be warned, the following pictures are scary! But I did it and I felt great when I finished. I downloaded the pics backwards. The first one is right after I crossed the finish line, and the second is coming in to the finish. I found a training schedule online and have been diligently following it for the last eight weeks. And now I'm hooked. I can honestly say I enjoy running. And even more, I love how it makes me feel. Can't wait to do another!
Maybe a half marathon next year? Hmmmm..............
Oh, and that trophy? I bet you are all really impressed that I got 3rd place in my age group, aren't' you?!! I hate to disappoint, but there were only three runners!! haha!! But hey, I'll take the trophy anyway!
