runchata...

i started running for some "me" time and to try to lose a few inches back in june. 
my cousin lindsay was getting married in august and i had that as my goal.

some friends of my organized a run to benefit a program that i took part in and graduated from in 2010 called "leadership fox cities."  so i signed drew and i up for the event...it was only a 4K so i was pretty confident i could handle it.

here we are before the race.  ready to go.
my goal was to run the whole thing...

well, it was a HOT day.
at one point, i said to drew that i felt like i was running the mile back in high school gym class.
i felt defeated!  but drew stayed with me the whole race. 
i did have to walk for a bit here and there...but we did it.
and come to find out, i was quite a bit faster than my usual pace on the treadmill.



maybe we will have to try one this fall, when it's a little cooler outside! :)
