A little over 10 weeks ago I decided I wanted to run in the Susan Komen Race for the Cure. I had participated in the past, just never actually ran. This year it was personal and I really wanted to do it. So I got on line and found some different running apps. Found one that looked good then I invited Sherri to train with me. She has been my rock since Mom was diagnosed with breast cancer in January and I thought "who not include her in my running misery?" I have always exercised, I've done classes, I've lifted weights and always gone for cardio walks.....but never have I ran. Except for the time I was trying to impress Paul with my athleticism back in 1997. Guess it worked like a charm cause 5 quick years later her married me. Anyway.....back to my running. Sherri and I would run three times a week, starting with 60 second intervals combined with 90 seconds of walking and eventually that lead to 28 minutes of running. The plan to was to be able to complete a 5K at the end of the 9 week training program.
We did it!!!!
Couldn't have done it without my support group.
