The first race of the year!

So if you have been following this blog for a while, you know I like to run, and I like races because they push you to do better than you usually would. Springtime is a blessing for me because it means the start of running season!

 

This past Sunday, I ran a 4-miler, and it felt really good. Maybe it is the feeling that the weather is getting better and outdoor running will become the norm in my life again. Or maybe sunlight just gives me joy. But I felt very happy.

I finished in about 31 minutes, beating my previous time on this particular route. Of course, I didn't win a medal of anything (there were professional runners that finished in like 20 minutes), but I'm really proud of myself.

My next race will be in a couple of weeks, and I can't wait!

Have you started running outside in this beautiful weather?

Cheers Eights & Weights!
