I'm a runner...yup! me! I went from being an obese, exhausted and depressed Mom of 2 to being a runner obsessed Mom of 2!!!! woohooo
I had my second 8K on Saturday and PR my run by 5 minutes! the route was insane, the hills were difficult and challenging and I still managed to beat my previous time by a big 5 minutes. I can't stop looking at the race results and smiling from ear to ear.
To all you slow runners out there...YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!!! I was always the slowest person in my running group and started running at a 15 to 16 min. mile. in six months I am now running between 11 and 13 min. mile (depending on those darn hills). Don't give up new runners!
Now on to my next goal....10K at the end of the month
