We went up an elevated road, and there were inclines, declines and road graded to have rain run off. It was not what I was expecting and I was pretty much dead after mile one. SIDENOTE- a mile isn’t that far, I walk a mile frequently, what’s a mile? These miles were long miles. I don’t know how they measured but they were very long miles.
I may have gotten a little overheated. I am just a big wimp when it comes to sun. Fifteen minutes with sun on my face and I feel sick. You’ve always wondered why I am so white, there is your answer.I do want to do another one, preferably on flat land this time. It was a big accomplishment and a push to stay active. I’ve done research on another 5k in June. Hopefully taking May to “train”. My goal is to run half of the 5k. I’ve really come a long way since Elevator Monday, dropping my BMI 3 points and feeling a lot healthier.
This feels like my very own Biggest Loser. Except my reward is having a picture of David and me on our 5 year anniversary. It’s been a while since I’ve allowed a photograph of myself, or seen one that didn’t make me puke. I have two months left to kick it into high gear, and stay determined/focused.
I will be ready for my picture.
