NSV-Inspiration

kleeper80

I rarely ever post on here, but today I feel like I need to. I recently completed the C25K program and ran my first 5K on September 24. At the beginning of September, the church I attend started a program called "Run For God" (you can go to runforgod.com to see the program). It is a fabulous program. But recently, several people have told me I am their inspiration to complete the program. One goal of the program is to run a 5K. All of the participants in the group will be running a 5K on December 3rd together. If you had told me 6 months ago, or even 3 months ago, that I was going to be somebody (let alone several people's) inspiration for running, I would have thought you were crazy. As it turns out, the fact that I am their inspiration, inspires me to do better! I am now getting ready to start the Bridge to 10K program, and will be signing up for my first ever 10K in March!
