I ran 3 races in 2011. I ran my first ever half marathons, the American Fork Half and the Provo Halloween Half and one 5k. I even ran them like a real runner with good times barely over 2 hours (2:05 and 2:01)! (They did have some good down hill assist with the good timing.) My 5 K run was several minutes faster than my previous time too! Not bad for a woman who only started running in May of 2010! AND was weighing in at 390 pounds just 2 years before!!!
Right now I’m stuck inside without a working treadmill and I long to run! I know many who run no matter what the weather or temperature but my lungs just don’t like the cold air. These pictures brought a smile to my face reminding me of how capable my body is of things a I once never believed were possible.
After posting this today I found this actual quote that I didn’t even know existed out there:
Love. Love. Love it!! You're awesome!!
ReplyDeleteWhoa, Love that first picture, I have yet to find a great running picture. Ok and then we get to the quote. Wow, love the post sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteLove that quote (and Audrey Hepburn), and this post. I've always wanted to run a 5k. Maybe this year I will. :)
