Jason and I went for a very enjoyable run tonight. We ran 3.03 miles according to the walking route on Google Maps. I felt really good... and strong! It was really nice to feel in shape. My time... that's another story, 25 minutes and 47 seconds. It's OK, after this race, I am training for a half marathon. It's only 4 miles more than what I'm doing on the 14th... how hard can it be? I'm hoping to get into as many 5Ks as possible as part of my training and also bring that time down closer to my PR (19:32). HaHaHaHa!!!! We will see.

I'm pretty excited about the whole thing. I think I should treat myself to a new pair of shoes and possibly a new running outfit... what do you think? :-)

Tomorrow I will do my first "Morning Run" since Kent. You know the kind where you run in the morning to get your body ready for your afternoon run? We are going to run 20 minutes. Then I will run 4 miles with my girls at track practice. Sound fun?? I'll let you know. :-)
