Jayme and me after the race. She and Alaina ran the 1K with all the other neighborhood cutie pies. |
If you remember, one of the goals on my 22 before 23 list was to run a 5K. I ran cross country for a year in high school and have run spontaneously since then but never truly enjoyed it. My dad, however, is a runner through and through; thus, I've always wanted to develop some sort of appreciation for it. I think I owe him that much.
I can proudly say that I ran this 5K faster than I ever ran one in high school. So. 5K, checked off the list. We're all planning to run the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving as well. Seems like a fun way to start a great holiday. Will you do it?
Hi I am a new follower and I do admire anyone who can be so dedicated to take on such a running challenge. I have been having problems with my knees since the birth of my second child. Congrats on achieving that goal.

Good for you! I am so not (nor will ever be) a runner, so I am always super impressed with those who have the guts to enter a race! Just recently found your blog (saw you live in VA too!), and have been soooo enjoying it! Happy Friday to you!
