Signed up for my first 10 K



I signed up for my first 10k this weekend and I am really excited. I have always wanted to walk the Copper River Bridge Run and never once thought I would sign up to actually run it. I began running in April ran one 5k over the Summer and gave up running/exercising again. I saw the results that I wanted to see and became lazy and quit.
I just started running again off and on over the last two months and decided to give myself a challenge. I ran a 5k about a week ago with little to no training and was not to impressed with my time. SHAREN 25 F COLUMBIA SC 35:11 11:20

I thought signing up for the 5k would get me back into this thing I never thought I would do...running...and it worked.

I have successfully completed a week of real training not just running around the block and I am very excited to see what happens next. I made a complete training schedule that I worked on for almost 2 hours and I am excited to see the next 16 weeks come. I will by the end of my training be running 10 miles in one setting. The longest I have EVER ran was 5 miles and that was on a whim.

So here is to new beginnings, getting into shape, kicking a 10K's ass, and starting the new year off with a bang.
