Well... I am officially a runner! I did my first 5K today. I NEVER thought I would be able to do that. Travis always told me I ran funny-I still might. In May a couple of friends and I started a "Couch to 5K" program. If I can do it, anyone can! We have been running ever since. We go 4 times a week and are up to 4 miles each day. I don't think any of us would have still been running this long if we didn't have each other to answer to. It has really been a good stress reliever and fun time to talk. Jennifer, Amber and I all ran in the Race for the Cure this morning. It was a great first race. It was so touching to see all of the survivors and the names of people who have lost their life to breast cancer. Hopefully this is just the first of many races to come! Go to coolrunnings.com to check out the program. It really was an easy way to break into running.

Big, I am so proud of you and so impressed!! Congratulations on finishing your first race!! I love you! -BABY SISTER
Congrats! I visited the website and want to do it after I recover from my c-section. I need to find a partner to start with though because I am a person who needs accountability! :) I've never been much of a runner, but who knows what a little extra baby weight could inspire a person to do! :) Did it really only take 9 weeks to learn to run a full 3 miles?
