My friend Becca had posted a link on FB a while ago about a 5K and Wheeler Farm, and I'm so inspired by all her running and her love/desire to run that I thought I would do the 5K. And today, I did just that! I didn't do as well as I hoped, I felt pressured the whole time. I just kept telling myself that right now, it wasn't about time for me, it wasn't about fast or slow, it was just about finishing the race. It helped my mental negativity when the people standing along the way would cheer for me. Other than that, I found my brain trying to make excuses to let me walk.
It was a good race! GREAT run! The course was SUPER easy!!! And I just really enjoyed it :) I feel very proud of myself. Having not prepared like I should have, and not having ran something like that since high school, I feel I did great regardless of my time and asthma. I'm so grateful my parents were there to support me! It was so nice meeting Becca and Missy! They are such sweet people, and it was fun to do that with them! Hopefully next year I'll do more races, cause I certainly enjoy them (at least when I'm done running)! :)
