2010 Iron Girl 10K

As most of you know I have been training for the Disneyland Half Marathon and today was my first race of all time. Let me just tell you all I am NOT a runner. I never have enjoy running, and I never thought that I could be a runner. But, this year has been different! I wanted to get healthy for myself and for my family, and I enjoyed running in college to get away from all the stresses and just go. My Bishop encouraged me to get a hobby so I picked running to see if it would give me the same benefit like in college, and it is working like a charm. I have never pushed myself so hard, and now here I am running mile upon mile. I have asked a couple of friends to join me, and their response is always... I'm not a runner! I can't do that! and my response to anyone who thinks they can't run... just try it. You are the ONLY person who can push yourself. Start making small goals so you can reach your larger goals. Here is one of my smaller goals the Del Mar Iron Girl 10K. Now I'm an Iron girl! Before the race pumping myself up!
