I know it may sound a little crazy but I actually kind of enjoying running. I guess it makes me feel healthy and strong to know that if I want to go run a few miles then I can. Or maybe that feeling comes from the Whitney Houston
blaring from my running
playlist "I'm every woman...!!".
I love talking to my friend,
Samanthe, about her progress training for the NYC Marathon. So inspiring. A few months ago I signed up for a few 5k races over the next few months just to keep me exercising. So I got up early this morning and headed out to run 3.3 miles in 37 degree weather.
Whoo hoo! Jamie and I have been running a little in the mornings before work so I wasn't too worried about the cold temperature. I survived the
chilly run today. My 32:30 time wasn't too impressive but I was proud of myself for just crossing the finish line alive. And I met both my goals- I didn't stop running and I didn't come in last place! (high expectations, huh??).
When I got to the registration table this morning and saw my lucky race number I thought it might be sign I should go back to bed! :)
