Weekly check in

Happy Monday runners!

I hope everyone had a fantastic week last week and another coming up.

Today's quote is from Amby Burfoot:

I run because I enjoy it—not always, but most of the time. I run because I've always run—not trained, but run.

I find that more and more of my inspirational quotes are coming from Amby these days. Who are the people who inspire you?

I ran my 5K! My time was 45:09, which isn't exactly speedy, but it was nearly two minutes better than my best practice time. And I felt great when I finished. I feel more motivated than ever to keep running, and to sign up for more races.

Congratulations!

That's awesome! I'm glad it went so well for you.

Woo hoo! Go you for your first 5k, and yay signing up for more races!

Yay you! And yes, races do that for me too - I'm not a fast runner either, but I've done my fastest running at races, with others around me and people cheering. It's magic :)
