So a few months ago I made the statement that I have no intention of running more than 2 miles ever again.
Watch the words you say, for they will surely come back to bite you
Not two weeks later I was told that at work we were all going to be running a 10k (when you work in the military they can mandate things like that). So I started running to get in shape for that. At the same time my sister was training for a half marathon, and one Saturday I went running with her. I ended up running a full 10 miles with her (farthest I've ever run, ever). I discovered that running with someone and at a slower pace for a long distance is actually kind of enjoyable. My sister suggested we run a half together.
So now we're signed up for this:
If you're going to run, it might as well be in the happiest place on earth. And this won't be my last - because I really want to get one of these:
If you run a half at both Disneyland and Disney World in the same year you get this "Coast to Coast" medal.
I've also invested quite a bit of money in running gear - expensive, but I find I'm much more motivated to get out and run when I have cool new running stuff to wear.
Apparently I'm a runner now
Good for you! I've taken up running in the past few weeks. I am nowhere ready for a half or a 10k!
ReplyDeleteWow! I am a bad friend! So, did you earn the coast to coast medal? If not, try again! You look so amazing in your awesome running gear! This is Rachel, and we are now in Fl, so next time you head this way let me know and we'll play again, or maybe I'll join you for a run!
