Woohoo!!!
I trained.
I ran.
I finished 6.2 miles.
I finished in 65 minutes and 12 seconds.
I completed the 10K ten minutes faster than I thought I would!
I am so humbled by the efforts of all the runners last Saturday.
The run wasn't easy.
It was warmer than it has been for the past two weeks.
There was a hill 1.5 miles long. It was fun going down. It was hard going up.
All I can say is that I am proud of myself.
I am a runner.
Thank you to my hubby, twins, mom, and sisters for loving me through my training and "get healthy" journey.
Thank you to my new friends (my readers) for your support and encouraging words.
Thank you to my friends who ran with me on my training runs.
I'm sorry that this post doesn't have any pictures from the race. My mom and hubby took pics, but they haven't uploaded them yet. I'll try to get them this week.
I am super sore from the race, so I'm taking a break from running until Thursday.
Today's Fuel: grains, veggies, milk, soup, orange, apple, lean beef in soup
Today's Activity: free weights for arms and upper body
I'm looking into doing a 5K in November and definitely one in February.
Having something to train for will be the key to maintainance.
I am loved and so very blessed.
I hope you're "kicking butt" with your journey.
I'll see you here again tomorrow.
