Today I signed up for a 10k that I will run on Saturday! I was originally just going to run the 5k portion, but in convincing a friend to run with me, we both ended up deciding to do the 10k. She said she was too slow for a 5k so I suggested do the 10k... on Saturday at about 9:30am we'll see if this was the wrong decision. Ha! The run is to raise money for the Brain Tumor Foundation, so even more of a reason to want to get out there. I will say that I do enjoy supporting each of the causes that these races are held for!
I'm continuing my effort to get/stay in shape by running and doing these races keeps me motivated during the week to run.
So motivated in fact, that I convinced Ben that he wanted to run with me last night! He went a 1.5 miles before stopping, then informed me that we were walking back! Pretty good start for someone who hasn't run in a long time. :-) It was also nice to get out and get Kenya running with us.
So as Saturday approaches please pray that I make it through the 10k and can continue to stay encouraged to do them, especially as the weather gets colder! :-)
