I did it!

112 miles later I ran a 10K. It was awesome.

Well IT was not awesome, it was freezing, and cold, and we parked far away, and my chip didn't register so I never got my official time...

BUT it was awesome!

I ran 6.2 miles in about an hour. My goal was 10 minute miles... and I did it! My goal was to accomplish something I haven't done in years... done. And let's be honest, at the end of the day I wanted to LOOK and FEEL better... and I do! HELLO size 6 and 8, it's nice to meet you and WEAR you again!

I haven't run since Saturday, my miles definitely took a dip in April when I began nursing my heal which hurt so bad I could hardly walk! So I am taking a break. I'm going to bike for a while and figure out my next "purposeful" move.

I'm hoping the metaphor I began begins to translate into my professional life as well. I feel like there is a purpose brewing under it all. What is it?

p.s. If you read this, read my sister's blog. It's what I've been waiting for! Leah is a FANTASTIC insightful writer, and she started to blog.... oh the JOY!
