I was running...

So...today is Friday. My most favorite activity of the week is tomorrow morning. Daniel and I, my 15 year old joined a running team. Tomorrow will be our 3rd meet....4 miles!!  The first meetup we ran 2 miles, last week we ran 4 miles...and tomorrow we're running another 4.  It feels great. The trails are right next to the river which is right next to our downtown skyline. It's gorgeous to run at the crack of dawn, listening to the river and seeing the sun come up and reflect off the buildings. I love it. My good friend asked me to join last year, but I felt so intimidated. I didn't think I could keep up or do it. She's ran several half marathons...I've ran one 5k...several years ago. I finally joined and I'm so glad! I'm really surprised at what I can do. I feel like I'm in the best shape of my life...at 32...after having FOUR kids!!  Whoo-hoo!  Running is so exhilarating. And it helps to have teammates cheering you on.  I love it. Can you tell? 


Let's see if I love it after tomorrow morning.
