I-run


I completed my third overall 5K, second one that used real chip timing devices and first one post baby! The verdict...I didn't walk at all! Who cares that my run was the same speed as the fat guy that was walking next to me. I didn't walk! I finished 20 seconds better than my first 5k, two years ago. And did I mention that the first two miles are uphill? And then after a nice downhill run, the race tricks you and sends you back uphill just before mile 3 but ends up flattening out before the finish line. It was rough to say the least. But I didn't walk. I even had enough stamina to take this adorable picture with my cell phone on the way home. I owe a special thanks to my lovely music collection on my I-pod and my nike+ shoes, thanks for keeping me moving!
Yay me!

wow I am impressed, I have some girls in my ward trying to convince me to do a triathalon. I am so out of shape that it isn't funny.

Way to go! I ran 2.6 miles today and thought I was going to die. I need to get my butt in gear.

Great job! It always feels good to not have to walk at all, pretty soon you'll be passing up that fat guy =)
