So I did the Toole County 5K Dash for Health this morning.Â? I planned to just walk it because my asthma wasn’t going to let me run and besides, I have a sinus infection.Â? So… I walked it and came in… dead last.Â? The ambulance was following me.Â? My time was probably around an hour for finishing (especially since neither my lungs nor legs felt like working toward the end) but dangit I FINISHED!!!!!!!!
Everyone was cheering for me when I got to the finish line (which made me feel more and hey… free BBQ afterwards for participating and I won a shirt in the drawing.
I came home, checked to see if they needed any help at VBS, showered, checked email, and promptly COLLAPSED on the couch for 5 hours and slept.
My goal if I do it next year: finish in less time.Â? I’m not even going to pretend that I can run it, especially with all the freaking hills in Shelby.
Awesome! Congrats! What a great achievement! You are right…the most important thing is that you made your goal, imho.
