10 miles I did it

Saturday, January 07, 2012

Today I got up and got ready for my 10 mile run for the Hospice House in my area. Well I went to the park there was nobody there. Yup I got the dates wrong. It is next week. Oh well I started walking anyway it was a beautiful day.
Ok it took me 3 hours to walk but I was having fun and pushing myself.
I did not bring water with me so I had to stop several time. The drinking fountains did not work. I did find a water faucet. I was able to wash out my mouth and get a drink with my hands. Public water tastes great when you are thirsty.

So now it is night and I am proud to say I did it. And I lived to tell about it. I am walking around and feel great. I will be ready for next week. Next week I will take water with me.

    10 miles is awesome! I bet you'll go into the run with a lot more confidence next week because you know you can do it already!
