R U N

I have never EVER been a runner,

and it seems like the last time I ran a mile was

in Junior High.

Thats probly not true but thats what it feels like,

when I start running after about a mile

I already feel like I cannot run anymore.

Pretty pathetic, I know.

BUT

I have a goal in mind.

I want to run the Turkey Trot,

it is 6 miles and is on Thanksgiving,

which is just over 7 weeks away.

To some people, especially my sister Laree,

who is an absolutely AMAZING runner and has ran in

2 Marathons and just qualified for Boston,

a-m-a-z-i-n-g

is, NO big deal, but to me, well lets just say I'll need

some serious training

if I really want to do it and not die.

I'm actually really really excited to set

a goal that seems so far from my reach,

to see if I can really do it,

and do a good job at it,

I definitely think I can if I stay dedicated.

This morning me and Nog woke up early

and started our first run...

He ran, I ran/walked for just under 3 miles.

Nog was so cute and didn't want to leave me all by myself,

so he would run a while then turn around, repeatedly.

(he ran alot more than 3 miles lets just say)

But there is something that really excites me

when I have a really good song going that

motivates me, and I run as fast as I can,

just to run with the beat.

I love it more than anything!

I told nog it felt like I was flying, haha,

and I didn't feel tired or weak until I stopped.

I'm as SOO excited about my new goal

and taking better care of myself.

So wish me luck cause I may really need it,

but I can't wait! :)
