Never say Never!

8 Comments Oh goodness... what a GREAT day! I am soooo proud of my friend Kelly - she said she couldn't run, it gave her side stitches and today she kicked BUTT at her FIRST 5k in 32:54! Wow. What an awesome thing to be a part of!!
So I woke up this morning at 6am and it was pouring, cold, and rainy. On any other 5k I would have forgone my $25 and went back to bed. But I guess that wouldn't be much of an example. So we both got each other up and moving and there in time. And ran in the rain.... something I have NEVER done before and quite frankly felt I would not enjoy.
Instead what did I get? A personal best time at a 5k ever! WHOA!! I could hear my mom in my ear saying see Amy this is why we try everything once. I almost crushed the 30 minute mark on a 5k. Another one of my "nevers". So here is to kicking off some great training to Vegas and to my running divas -- I'm catching up! ;) And 30:30 -- I can't wait to beat you again!
Enjoy our crazy post run vlog at Kelly's house. I did find out that is it my MAC camera that is messing up my vlogs so stayed tuned while I upgrade equipment. :)
CHEERS all and keep running.
5k,
Kelly Olexa,
