Danielle Charity Race-5k 3/17/12

This race benefited Danielle's Inn, a home for unwed mothers that teaches life skills and more to young mothers with little or no support or help. The race began at 9:30 am at Fontainebleau State Park. The sun was beating down on me and I felt myself get overheated half way through-The water break saved me and I finished in 34 minutes. It felt great being a part of a good cause. Over $5000.00 was raised for Danielle's Inn.

My first 10k-Ozone Run 3/10/12

On March 10th, I ran my first 10k race. It was the qualifier for the CCC, and my goal was to run the entire race-AND I DID! It was so hot and I pictured myself passed out about mile 5. I finished it however in about 1.07 and was okay with that! And being the crazy girl that I am, I registered for another one-Crescent City Classic, 4/7. I am dreading the heat, but am wanting to challenge myself. Running for me is my sanity right now. I do it for myself. It is such a love hate relationship, and I definitely am having to work hard to work it in.
