Running

I was the girl who walked the mile in high-school. I never really “got” the purpose of running for recreation or athletics and never imagined it would be something I would ever do, let alone that I would ever run in races. Then, in early 2012, I was bored with my current fitness routine and decided I’d give running a try. Considering my complete inexperience with the sport, I eased into it with the Couch-to-5K program and used the C25K app to do so.

My first race was in June 2012 and I was so thrilled to even be participating in it, I fully embraced last place. I ran 5Ks all through the second half of 2012 and in 2013 pushed myself to 10Ks and even a Half-Marathon!
