I did something that I never thought I could on Thanksgiving...no, I didn't eat a whole turkey...but I ran a 10K race!!! It's 6.2 miles for my metric challenged friends. I did it in 1h 14 min 54 seconds. That's a perfect 5 miles/hour. I didn't stop once, I had to slow down to take a picture and to get a drink. I had to pee for the first 3 miles, but I burned that little water after a while and was just fine. Of course, I place 2300th but there were also 300 people behind me! I'm not a runner really, this was my first race, but I'm thinking not my last. The kids asked me if I won and I said "Oh yes I won" and I think I did!
Waiting for mom
Becky (looking beautiful) and me (didn't get the memo that make-up and hair was required for a race, I did put deodorant on)
Being past by over 2,000 runners. I didn't even care.
See, people are behind me still
I won!
Happy-achy-tired-38yr old Mom of 5!!! I am proud of me :)))
