So Proud.....(Kelly)

I AM SOOOO PROUD OF JENN!!!!!!!!!!  I needed to shout that out - last Sat. Jenn did her first full 5 mile run with me and she was awesome.  She could have chosen a flatter run (which I secretly wanted her to do) but she wanted to run Alventhorpe (not sure how you spell it) park which once around is 1.7miles of rolling hills and one big long windy hill.  There really isn't much to this park that is flat so 3 laps around is nothing to joke about especially for your first time trying to do 5 miles.  We finished under an hour and looking great. 

I am so proud of Jenn for sticking with running and for being my running partner. Running is not easy and especially through the cold months but we kept at it.  Jenn even ran 5 miles again on Tuesday (feeling like a slacker now....b/c I haven't run since Sat. ) at the park by herself.  It's hard enough some days to get out and go running when it's still chilly with your running buddy but when you get up and do it by yourself that's even more commitment. 

I can't wait to do Broad Street with Jenn and cross the finish line together. It is going to be an awesome feeling doing something you never thought you could do with your best friend beside you the whole way!!!!

If you have something you want to do or even something you may not want to do but want to challenge yourself to do it GO FOR IT....!!!  You really can do almost anything you put your mind to and Jenn and I are a testament to that with running.  BROAD STREET WATCH OUT - WE'RE COMING!!!  COUNTDOWN TO MAY 1ST BEGINS......
