There is a St. Patrick's Day 5 Mile Race every year in downtown St. Louis. Since I was in the middle of training for the half marathon and never run more than a 3.1 mile race, I thought it would be a good idea to do this one...for my confidence more than anything! My running group from the Y had run 8.5 that week, and I had not done well at all. This race definitely boosted my confidence and was a lot of fun! Every race feels like an awesome accomplishment!
T.R. and the girls waiting for me to run by. Have I mentioned that he is the BEST??? They walked all over the place to find a spot to see me in the race and at the finish. I think they managed to get some yummy hot chocolate in between.
Giving Emma a "high five" as I ran by. I always get teary when I see them cheering for me as I run up. :)
Before the race by a mini-arch.
Before the race with my girls!
