My husband and I along with my sister and her boyfriend
decided to run a half marathon coming up in March. When we signed up it was
before Thanksgiving and plenty of time to train. Yea well the holidays got in
the way of any training and my poor 3 miles that I can run is just not going to
cut it when going up against 13.1. I physically hurt when I look at think about
running that many miles. So a few weeks
back I searched the races in our area and decided we should at least run a 5k
then a 10k before the half marathon. The
5k was supposed to be this weekend. So Friday night I look up the race course
and it was not a 5k but a 10k. We decided to go ahead and run. I will spare you
the details but we did finish. I was very proud of us both. Although it was not
pretty I am glad that we went through with it. My body is still aching.
The
most important thing is I have a t-shirt to prove it.
After the race and a long shower we had a Mardi Gras ball.
For those of you not familiar with Mardi Gras you will be hearing more on the
topic later. If you want me to send you a King Cake, Moonpie’s and beads just
let me know!
