Finally Running Five!

Well, it took awhile, but I finally ran 5 miles today! Yahoo! But, I did have a bit of a problem with my runner's gut flaring up. Bummer! Hmm, wondering what to do about that. Anyway, I was very happy to have ran 5 and I felt pretty good through out the whole run.

About 3/4's into my run I passed some other runners who were coming towards me. We exchanged "hello's" and I asked them how far they were running. One of them said, "Oh, only about two." And I said, "That's great! Have a good one!" As I proceeded to run, I thought about their "2," my "5," and the runner I ran into the other day - her "10." We were all running, all at different paces, all with different goals, but running just the same - moving forward and making progress.

I am pleased I made 5 miles today - finally!
