So, we kicked off our training on Saturday with 6.2 miles. Normally, that distance wouldn't have be *too* bad, but with 90 degree temps and insane humidity, it made for a more difficult than usual run. I ran with a great group of girls, who made the run so much more enjoyable than it has ever been when I am out by myself and we all completed it more or less with smiles on our face!
I've decided that my goal for this race is to finish with no injuries. In order to keep my knees and feet happy, I have to slow down. This is not an easy feat for someone who likes to move fast, but I've committed to trying my best to slow down. I also committed to trying to be more social with my running group. They are a fantastic bunch of people, but I don't always do too well in large groups of people, but I guess it is time to push out of my comfort zone and just do it!!
Well, day one of training down...how many more to go??
