Crossed That Finish Line!!!!

So the run was fantastic! In all I really honestly can't tell you gals how happy I am; I can't believe how far I've come in less than a year. I thought I was gonna to cry when I made it through the finish line....instead I ended up up-chucking the small amount of Gatorade I drank a km back.:-S No, really, I crossed the finish line and about 5 seconds later.... But I got my medal and that's all the matters :) My time was a tad slow b/c I haven't been running on pavement just the side of the road/subdivision. I completed the run in 41:24, which I'm fine with. I'm going to continue to train over the summer and hope to see an improvement for the Run For The Cure 5K in the fall.

I got to meet up with lovely Angie and Tash before hand! I felt a bit nervous earlier that morning but once we meet it was like we already knew each other. As most of you know this was both Angie's and my first run and I was so excited and giddy, the waiting was so slow too. But we DID it!!

Angie and I meeting for the first time!
Us again!

No actual pics of me crossing the finish line yet, but I should be able to buy them online soon! All in all an AWESOME day!!!

It's Here!!

So the day has finally arrived!! Months of hard work are going to be put to the test and I AM SO PUMPED!! I'm so nervous I feel like I have to pee, lol (but I don't! weird huh...hope this feeling goes away soon!

Good News: There is NO rain in sight only gorgeous SUNSHINE!!

Plus I'm meeting the lovely Angie and maybe Tash too!!! Can't wait to check in with everyone later!

And It Begins....

So excited for the weekend, its unreal!! Got my bib # this morning and tonight I'm going to pick up my race kit. I kinda want to take the afternoon off work to go over and do that, plus I need new headphones (figures they'd go all crackily now) and a few other items. I really can't be any more excited than I am now, lol... is it bad to say that I'm more excited than I was at my wedding or prom?! :)

My plan is to get in a run tomorrow even if it's raining. Hopefully it will let up a bit and I will get out there....even the evil, change-on-a-moments-notice Nova Scotia weather seems to be cooperating for Sunday though!
