I am a runner. Well, I am probably what some might call a fast walker. I woke up before my 6:00 alarm went off to join Tuesday Morning Coffee Runners. My newly purchased running pants and jacket helped encourage me to get out of bed in complete darkness. The fact that it is cold and dark did not help motivate me.
I admit when our leader made it clear, "there is a no runners left behind" policy I thought, "oh crap!" I want to blend into the trees. I don't want anyone to know how ridiculously slow I am and have people waiting on me. There was a small group, but there were various speeds to choose from. I was in the southern-most group.
I did it though! I ran 3 miles with only having to walk for a few minutes to keep my stomach on good terms with me. Having a brutal cough/sinus infection isn't really the best time to pick up running.
A hot drink was my reward and this sweaty gross picture of me, proves I was there.
