I did it...again!
Two years ago I completed my first real 5K. (There was one before that, but we aren't going to think about that one right now...)
Camille was a baby, and my goal was to finish the thing.
Well.
Fast forward two years, and here we are again. I wanted to run it to show myself I could do it again, and do it better. I also had the goal of convincing my friend/running "coach" to run it with me.
Check, check, and check!
Sometimes time passes after a big event and your memory fades a little bit. I remembered this course being hilly, but I was hoping that it wasn't quite as hilly as I remembered it being. This was not the case. It was actually hillier.
At any rate, my friend stuck with me. She was so cool. :) I appreciate her so much. (Also...now I can say that I have run with a marathoner. That's got to up my running "status" at least 50 points...)
Our time was somewhere around 37 minutes. At first I was frustrated with that time, but then I went back and checked the post from last time--- THREE MINUTES FASTER!! I'm not really running for speed, but it makes me feel so good to know that I'm sticking with it and improving.
Good job, Anne. :)
PS- This post only goes to show that if I can complete a 5K, I PROMISE you you can too. :)
