Warming up before the race |
The first part of the run was on the Salisbury Point Ghost Trail |
Using my iPhone and meeting a pothole, I nearly fell before mile 1 marker. |
My running buddy Aime. |
Mile 5 marker was down by the time we got there; never saw mile 6 marker. |
This baby eagle lifted off the wires to join our run! |
1.2 more miles to the finish line. |
The finish line is in sight! |
We made it! |
Great job girls!! First or dead last, you would not have even thought of doing this a few years ago. You're an inspiration to so many. Thank you for that!
ReplyDeleteLynn, You are absolutely right! Three years ago I could barely walk 5 minutes and the whole time I was out of breath!
ReplyDeleteYes, I am proud of this accomplishment!
You GO, Theresa!!! Imagine - you finished something you didn't even train for! That is truly a great thing. I am quite impressed with your exercise routine and your FitBit.
ReplyDeleteI have just started a course of Pulmonary Rehabilitation to get me to be able to exercise without being short of breath and dizzy. Today was the first day I was able to exercise without stopping! Not exactly a 10K, but I biked 3 miles and walked for 3/4 miles. Sounds puny when I say it out loud. But I went shopping tonight, and was able to buy a size 8 jeans! So I am doing something right. Was an 18 in November. I agree that being able to move without being winded is an enviable goal, and I am so glad that you are able to accomplish that.
Go, Theresa!
Momomig - you rock! We all have to start somewhere and you are off to an incredible start! Three years ago I could barely walk 5 minutes and I was out of breath the whole time, so I know exactly what you mean - but nothing you're doing is puny at all!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on you size 8 jeans! It's my dream to be a size 8! I will be soon be shopping in your size!
