So it's finally here. Tomorrow I will be running a race for the first time since the beginning of my freshman year of college. I used to like running but it gradually fell by the wayside of life. I would pick it up intermittently but that all changed when my sister signed me up to run a 5k. I picked up Couch to 5K and got going. Tomorrow is the culmination or is it?
I am going to run tomorrow but I have realized that I don't want to just be done. This has actually been the re-start of something that I have found enjoyable. It has also given me something outside of being a wife and mom. To me, it allows me to develop and challenge myself in the midst of the sometime mundane tasks of a stay at home mom.
I have about a week and a half to go before I "graduate" from my Couch to 5k program and I'm hoping to at least do one more 5k before winter. I'm a little scared about tomorrow (my goal is just to run the whole thing) but I'm also really excited! I'll definitely have some pic and a story to come!
