Tony and I ran our second 5k on Sat the 22nd of May. I wasn't as excited about this run. I was a bit concerned about the location just because there are tons of hills in the area. We started the course and I was right, there were hills in the course. I do not mean small hills but hills that will have you asking yourself, WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!?! Before the first fourth of a mile was ran they had you go up your first hill. I made it up half way up the hill and walked the last half. Then I was really beating myself up over that. I am not really quick to quit on myself like that. I do not run the fastest but I do have endurance. So I promised myself that I would run what ever came my way from then on out. That brought 2 more hill just like that. But I did it, and beat my last time. I finished in 41:18. Maybe just maybe I might be able to do the next one in under 40. Not sure about that, but it is a goal. The running is hard at times but it is helping with the weight loss. I want to see victory in this area of my life. It takes work and time but I am learning so much on my journey. This picture is of me coming towards the finish line.
