Longest run...coming Saturday

This coming Saturday, I will be running the longest distance that I remember running - ever!  When I was running cross country in high school, I don't ever remember the coach telling us distance - that or I didn't care at the time.  EIGHT, yes 8, miles are going to be tackled on Saturday morning.  My alarm will be set for 5:30 and I hope to be out the door by 6:00 AM and get home by 7:45 AM.  Then, my kiddos and I can have some time relaxing on our own.

The training program my friend gave me is a good one...slowly building up distance.  It has allowed me to build up some stamina as well.  Yesterday, I ran my first 5K (of my 6 mile run) without stopping.  This is the first 5K I have ran without stopping since - well, probably since I was in high school.  Slowly but surely, I'm getting there!  Thank you for everyone that has supported me so far.  It is definitely appreciated! :)
