A few months ago I set a goal.
I worked really, really hard.
And...
I DID IT!
Crossing the finish line was the best feeling ever!

This was not about being fast. I didn't care about my time and expected to be close to 40 minutes. I was shocked when the clock said 32.43. My only goal was to keep running the entire race and I accomplished it!
I learned a lot about myself doing this. I learned that I can do hard things that I never thought possible. In the past, I couldn't even run a few yards without being tired, so running a 5k seemed so overwhelming.. I'm so excited to keep working at it and run another one in September. Maybe someday I'll get brave and try a 10k.... but not anytime soon. : )
