Honestly we only had 6 weeks. Last summer when I started training for my 5k I did a 9 week program we only had 6 weeks and 6k is farther than 5k. I was nervous that we weren't going to be ready.
On Saturday Oct. 9th was the big day! We headed over to Thanksgiving point and with over 1900 women we ran the race. I am glad to say that I ran the whole thing. I was slow.... But I did it. I just keep telling myself my goal was never to be the fastest just to complete it. And I did. I love it. It is a good feeling to set a goal and then to complete it. Brian brought the girls over, and because it was an all woman race there were a lot of husbands and kids at the finish line. They even had bouncy houses to entertain the kids while the mom's were running. It was a lot of fun. I am glad that I did it!
Me and the girls after the race!

Thank you, Brian for watching the girls in the morning so I can go!

You rock. I wish I could get back into running. I suck. You seriously are amazing!
