This morning I woke up and I felt good. The inside of my knees are a little sore, which I've never experienced, and oddly enough, my shoulders are sore! My legs feel great though!
As I was reflecting on the race last night, I thought a lot about how far I've come. Just 2 months ago, I had never run a full mile. Running for 4 minutes felt like an eternity! I'm starting to actually believe that I'm going to be able to run the Prairie Fire Half Marathon in October.
In Kansas our state motto is Ad Astra Per Aspera, it means To The Stars Through Difficulties. I think it describes my journey quite well. carrierunstothestars.blogspot.com
I happened to run across your blog and got super excited when I looked at your race page. I'm also doing the color run 7/1 in Kansas City. This is going to be my first 5k run. I have a lot of weight to lose and figured this would be a great motivation to lose the weight. Congrats on your success so far! I'm a new subscriber.
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome! I'm so excited about the Color Run! Do you live in Kansas? I'm from Wichita!
