the Dam 5k

A group of us did the couch potato to 5k in 9 weeks program. This is our first 5k after completing the program. I did not run the whole thing... I know shame on me... but I did run over half of it. We are starting the training again to get faster and this time I am not going to get some weird intestinal thing or a really bad cold in my lungs to interfere with the running... so my next one I can run the whole thing.... well... at least improve on my time with each one completed!!!

Trevor and the children came out on this cold ultra windy Saturday morning to support me. I am really grateful for a husband who understands how important this was to me and for children who were super excited to come and watch.

With doing this I have realized things about myself...

running really is not my exercise of choice

I get bored while running

I love doing things with others... enjoy the chatting

I like variety in my work out

I need to loose some of my baby love so I can see the leg muscles running gives you.

I have developed a wonderful friendship with these gals in my running group

I love ya Emily, Beth, Liisa, Jennifer L and Chris

Emily is not pictured... she had to attend a funeral.

WE DID IT - - -

WE FINISHED THE DAM 5K!!!
