So this morning I had to get up early to take my Jeep back to the shop, then help Sara move to her new salon, get my hair done, run some errands with Sara and then... I took a nap...
But to back up for a moment, while I was at the salon I got a text from one of my youth group boys, Collin. He text me to tell me he wants to train with me for this 5k! I have been searching for someone to train with me and push me, who better than an energetic 7th grader!
Well today we went for our first run! I did not wanna get up from my nap but I did.. Took me a few extra minutes but I got up, picked Collin up and we started out 8 week training today! It really helped knowing that someone else was counting on me to honor this run, if it were just me it would have been so easy to just turn over and go back to sleep on the couch!
It was tough though... We had to run for a minute then walk for a minute and a half and that minute we ran seemed like hours! Haha! But I never gave up and Collin was so sweet to stick with me while I was running super slow and huffing and puffing! Such a sweet boy!
Thank you all for your encouragement and comments... Please keep them coming! We are going for run number 2 tomorrow!
I hope the death while running feeling goes away soon.... =P
