6/02/08 - WOW! I Did It!

I was not looking to do anything but finish the race on Saturday. I did!  What a sense of accomplishment. The race was different than what I had imagined.  Lots of support from the spectators but also from the runners.  I thought that I would only run to train for this race but after the race I was looking for the next one to run. I dont want to stop! The training has been hard but worth it and I dont want to go back to where I was 10 weeks ago&.when I could barely run 10 blocks.  This training has been a great kick in the pants to get me to exercise and stay healthy. I realized that just running two or three times a week can get you to a 5K in 10 weeks. WOW!  Maybe when more time allows in my life I can set my sights on running a longer race (10K or half marathon?).  I feel better both physically and mentally.  I would recommend a training class&especially one with Sarah and Jason, who took a lot of heat from me when I was tired and didnt feel like running.  They heard my many excuses but smiled and kept pushing me. They made the class productive and fun but were able to push us along. They are the reason we all finished and did well.  We owe a big part of our success to them!
