December 23, 2012. After a long 8 weeks of training today was the day for my first virtual 10km race and out I went on the chilly, windy winter day.
It was -4c (24f)out there and my lips felt like they were going to freeze off but they didn't...lol.

It was a great experience and very hard on my body. I had to dig deep and push it to make it to the end but I did it!

Total time was 68m 20s.

When I go home my DH and little trainer has strung up a finish line with ribbon for me to run through and had a glass of water waiting. They snapped pictures and video and told me how proud they were of me :o) That was reward enough to me!

Thanks to all of your sparkles for the support and good luck on all your races! You can do it!
