I finished it, but you know what? I was WAY more proud of myself for a recent 5k i did (those are the only 2 races i have ever done btw) because I jogged the whole thing... yes i had to ask an 8 year old to walk by me while i jogged and not let me stop but I did it. I walked in the 10 miler (averaging a 12min mile) but not the 5k and knowing that was WAY crazy for me (even though my friends finished 10 mins before me) I was crazy proud and you should be too! You accomplished something you never thought you would and now you know you can do more! You're amazing and inspiring to me as I try to get back in this work out journey! breedwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11574996082029219201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1331982890704781222.post-33040858129078443482012-10-10T10:11:12.043-07:002012-10-10T10:11:12.043-07:00Thank you all for all your support!

I must be going to start AF like any.day.now - you kept at it - you didn't let the key incident stop you - you DID IT!!! Congratulations. SO awesome.<br /><br />I lost my key once running at this park - no spare either and guess what? my cell was in the car. So I had to ask someone to borrow their phone, long story short.. I didn't have my wedding ring on and the guy who offered his phone asked if I wanted to continue to run with him - BAH!! So someone found my key and placed it on my car - because I went back around the trail telling EVERYONE (dumb I know) that if they found the key, my car was the White Nissan with the plates "Kottez". STUPID GIRL. So now I ONLY buy running shorts, skirs, pants with zipper pockets in them. AGH!!! It is so scary when that happens.<br /><br />Any whoo - CONGRATS again.Melanie @ 4Kottezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18377501017142730464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1331982890704781222.post-34746939186574267022012-10-10T05:39:04.202-07:002012-10-10T05:39:04.202-07:00Congrats!
