So, can you say "out of shape"? In keeping with our goal of running the 5k in May, the girls and I went out and started our Couch to 5K training program tonight. It was a gorgeous night, and what we lacked in skill we definitely made up for in enthusiasm. Until we actually started to run.
** (And to be clear, this "we" I speak of is Savannah & me. Sage, our resident soccer star, was literally running laps around us)!
Oh my! It was embarrassing how hard it was, but I just kept on running. Ugh! I must say that when it was over we felt good (maybe because it was over?!), and we gave each other a high five, drank some water, and gave each other another high five.
81 days until race day. 62 days left in our training program. We've SO got this!
Way To Go soooo proud u guys way to go!!!!! Sage good job u need whip mom Savannah into shape. Glad ur ankle is bettrr
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great night and the start of an inspiring "Rocky Balboa" style training journey - I can hear the soundtrack in my head and picture you three taking on the world! Please know I am cheering you on and also feeling like a real blob! Time for me to get on my running shoes, too! It's gonna hurt - Yo Aaaaadriannnnnnne!!!! :) Maybe one day we can meet in some middle state (Louisiana??) and do a 5K together - then lay on the beach for a few days! Ha!
