A couple of month back, my cuz asked me if I would be interested in doing the 10k Fleet Feet Women's Race! I was super excited and told her I would love to do it!
On July 17, 2011 I woke up at 5:15am and got ready for my first race! Nervous and excited all in one! Not sure why I was so nervous, but I had never ran 6 miles in my life! As we arrived at Montrose Harbor, my stomach began to bubble! LOL! OMG...what have I gotten myself into! So nervous, for no reason at all!
As we went to the start line, I seen women of all sizes, all races, all ages, and even pregnant women! WHAT!! Ok, I'm motivated, I can do this with noooo problem! That was what went through my mind!
We ran and ran and ran it seemed like! We talked! We didn't talk! We viewed the beautiful lake as we ran! At the half way mark (3miles), my cuz gave me her ipod! I put on some BEYONCE and didn't look back! Next thing, I know we were at the finish line! WHOOOOO HOOOO! I DID IT!
....and so can anybody else!
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!
