Yipee! I just ran my first 5k today and it was alot of fun! I have to say I feel so proud of myself, I know that 3. whatever miles is not that big a deal but 6 weeks ago I could barely run 10 minutes without feeling sick! I can't believe how empowering it feels to train for something and then do it, and have fun doing it in the process. This all happened thanks to my good friend Missy (green sweater) who encouraged me to start training with her and other good friend Erin (brown jacket). I am so thankful that she kept asking me to go with them, the first few weeks were definitely uncomfortable, but now I feel like I could conquer the world! sort of. Sadly the temperatures were not appeasing and my family did not look like they had a good time waiting for me:( Ezra I guess had been screaming for the last 20 minutes before we finished, so hopefully next race will be better in that department. My next goal is to run a half marathon at the end of the summer or beginning of fall, I'm not sure which, with Erin. I just want to thank Erin and Missy for being my friends and getting me to run with them, it's been so much fun!
