My goal for 2010 is to do a race a month in 2010. I did a race this afternoon. It was a rough one. Remember, I don't train outside. I ran in rain, ice, puddles, snow, and freezing cold conditions. But I finished. Not as great as my first 5K in October. But I did a respectable time of 41:40. I have to give myself credit. I am not a skinny mini. I don't train outdoors. I don't have a training partner. I am not trying to place first. I am just trying to finish it. I want to prove to myself and the kids that when we set out to accomplish a goal, we don't quit. They were proud of me; even though they cheered from home. I am pleased. I am proud. Now, I have to train for the Valentine's Race on February 13. Wish me luck!
i agree--you finished and that is more than most people will do. COngrats! What a great goal too, I love it! :)
