I forgot to mention that I ran my first 5K in over three years last Saturday. I had been \u201ctraining\u201d, and by training I mean running approximately once every 5-10 days, and was finally finding some fun in running again. It helped that L., unlike both of her sisters, loves to go for runs in the jogging stroller. In fact, if I time it right, she\u2019ll often fall asleep along the way.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I\u2019m proud to to report that I finished fourth in my age group, and 26th overall!<\/p>\n
Of course I must also admit that only 100 or so people ran the race, and I was over eight minutes slower than the guy who won our age group.<\/p>\n
Oh well. Baby steps.<\/p>\n
I bought some new shoes today, so if the temperature ever drops below 85 again, I might try to run twice every 5-10 days.<\/p>\n
