before turning forty-ahem something...
cough...cough...
i have it on my bucket list to complete two 10k's...
(10k = 6.2 miles)
and i have been procrastinating for 8 months to run one...
so when my coworker and sweet friend told me about
HIT THE BRIXX 10k...
i pondered...and pondered...
and did my best to get out and run to increase my distance before this race
and before signing up!
so last minute...like yesterday....
i registered and registered my other girlfriend with me...
shelly the mamma in the red she's the one that told me about the race...
and she's a marathoner...
she pretty much kick's butt!
then joana the girlfriend i registered with me...
the mamma in the middle...
well, she's been running about 6-7 miles
on pretty much a daily basis...
and then there's me...
who only averages 3-4 miles and
who only averages 3-4 miles and
who continues to plug along...
hoping that one day i will find this thing called running
a passion of mine and not a chore....
i'm not there yet...
can you see?
i'm struggling and really finding the strength i need within me...
to cross that finish line...
i had to keep reminding myself that...
"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength!"
Philippians 4:13
and He did!
one 10k crossed off my bucket list....
one more to go...
hoping to get it done...
and then maybe, just maybe...
a 1/2 marathon???
; ) wink..wink...
