I didn’t die - WOOOO HOOOO!!!
No, I did not die, I felt like I was gonna die, I felt like I wanted to die - but I did not die!! I ran that 5k for breast cancer today and it was horrible and wonderful all at the same time. I ran it in 36 minutes…and I wasn’t last…so I think that I rock! LOL
I am proud of myself if you couldn’t tell - but at the same time it was a HUGE reality check. It was hard and I walked/jogged the whole way…jog a little - walk a little…and it was hard. A year ago I was running 4 miles 4-5 days a week…no problem…hated every minute of it until it was over…then I never felt sooo good! How quickly and far I have fallen!
But I am going to see the silver lining in this…I did it! First step finished! On to the next step….so I am going to find another 5k run to do and I am going to train more and get better…and who knows? Maybe I will up the ante a little and try a 10k someday…but in the meantime…every step is a step closer to being lighter and healthier.
Ok…I’ll stop now… LOL
I hope everyone has a very blessed day and that you also take one step at a time…those steps…they add up to miles…so be thrilled with those steps…=)
By the way - did you know I ran a 5k? HAHA - ok I’m done….
You did great - look from this point for how much you can do and soon you’ll be running the whole 5k! Good on you for just doing it & finishing it! Can’t wait to see your blog for the next one.
That is gREAT!!!! 36 mins is good in my book!
I signed up for a new one that will be in Nov. I want to try to jog the whole thing…so I am going to start training on Monday.
Gratz on your 5k and for a great cause. Keep up the good work.
