Week 9 & 10

Wow! Sorry I have not been very good about blogging lately. The last time I wrote, I thought I was running an eleven-miler for my long run. Turns out we only had to run eight. It was such a relief when I got to practice. Last week we had to run nine, and I was shocked at how well I felt after I was finished. Another nine mile run this weekend, but I am off to camp in Telluride and will be attempting to run it on my own! All in all, I am feeling much more like a runner. My body feels pretty great concidering... and it is a great way to clear my head. I think I'm addicted!

I had a fundraising BBQ in Fort Collins this week! It was great to see some of my old friends & co-workers while raising more money for LLS! Thank you to those who were able to make it over for the BBQ, I truly appreciate your support.

Tonight is our group fundraiser, Charity Fashion Show & Silent Auction. It should be a great time!

Week 8

Well, I am still running. It has become a part of everyday life. We did not have group training this week due to the holiday weekend. It was scary to think of running the long run for the week on my own. Luckily, it was only six miles and I got out and did it! It's pretty cool to know I can get out and conquer six miles all on my own. I just never imagined myself ever running more than 2-3 miles... and here I am training for 26.2 and loving almost every minute of it! The next long run is ELEVEN miles!! This Saturday morning, I will join my team members and attempt to run those miles. I am a little nervous, but I know I can do it! I will be sure to let you know how it goes!
