I didn't die!!!

So, anyone who knows me doesn't really think of me as an exercse buff. Quite the opposite actually. I love to sleep, watch TV, and eat. I don't think I have run anywhere, on purpose anyway, since I was in 8th grade basketball. I will also admit that during 8th grade basketball, I was the SLOWEST person on the team. I'm not exaggerating. I beat some people while running once and Coach made us run more because she said the other people were obviously not trying if I beat them.

Well, in September some friends at work and I started working out. I have no plans to get pregnant again so I figured I didn't have an excuse to be fat anymore. We then decided (must have been crazy) to run a 5K. My Amazing husband said he would also run with us. Well, today was the day and I DIDN'T DIE. Oh, I wanted to but I didn't. I didn't make it running the whole time but I finished. My time was 40 minutes and some odd seconds. We are going to run again in June. I hope to have my time closer to 30 minutes.

My Sisters, nieces, James's wife, daughter and some coworkers came out to support us.


This is Yaya and James's beautiful wife. She is amazing. One of those women who is beautiful all the time.


This is before the race. Me, James, and Carrie.


This is after. Notice the red tint to my face.




I would also like to add that Bryan did not train one day for this thing. He was so nice and ran with me the whole time. I know he hated it because I slowed him down but he was very supportive of me.
