I grew up a swimmer. Running has never been my thing, and I definitely don't claim for it to be. I have asthma and let's be honest, I'd rather sit on my couch in the air conditioning any day over out in the heat sucking wind!
I'm working to change this thinking and aversion I have against running because so many of my friends and my dad just love it. It's healthy, and I need to get more healthy. I've decided I'm going to run the Race for the Cure 5K and the Buddy's Race against Cancer 5K this fall and hopefully move on up to a 10k someday, and maybe maybe MAYBE a half marathon eventually. Not promising anything but why not shoot for the stars right?!?! Gotta keep telling myself if Oprah can do it, then I can too!
Okay, here goes!
