I started running when I moved to Oregon in 2008. When I first started, I couldn't even run to the end of my block! I made it my goal to just run a little bit further each time. Not too much time went by before I realized how much I loved the sport of running. I signed up for my first 5k in April 2009. I have loved watching my speed and distance increase as the years have gone by.

After a run Monday, boot camp and digging with a shovel (alot!) on Tuesday and then another run this morning, my leg is angry! Dang it. Had to stop and walk a little under 3 miles, but was able to finish my jaunt this morning. Tomorrow: rest.
