I think my new hobby will be running. Yeah, yeah I know I've been running for a while now but I've just recently discovered its benefits, both physically and psychologically. Next week will be my last of five 5ks in the Winter Run Series. I can proudly say I've increased my time for each run. I've shaved nearly 10 minutes off my very first 5k. It is amazing to see progression!
I must attribute my motivation and inspiration to my sisters, Melissa and Rebecca. They are the ones that I truly look to, not just for running, but for advice, insight and support.
My goal is to run a 10k by the end of the summer. Currently I am dreading any distance longer than 3.1 miles but with constant effort and persistence I will increase my endurance!
If you're a fan of running (and a female) have you heard of Girls Gone Strong? Have you heard of Girls on the Run?
Also, Chris put my blanket-in-progress in the cabinet with the can opener again. Hmph. Someday I will finish it.
