Do you run?

P.S.  No this is not us - I would look way more exhausted!
A few weeks ago I thought about running - I just hate that it is something I say I can't do! I never have been athletic or even pretended to be athletic but I do dream a lot that I am running!  I tried one of those couch to 5K thing and hated it - I felt like I was tripping all over myself!

So I mention it to my friend, Lindsey who is a runner.  She challenged me to run with her - not like she runs (1/2 marathons) but just to run a mile - guess what?  I did it!  I have not run, never ran, was afraid to run, intimidated by the thought, was sure I would die, etc.  I did not run in high school - nada!  I think all the biking has helped so I am running - not very far and not very fast. I am up to 1.5 in the second week and all I can say is ya-hoo!

Thanks, Lindsey!
