Just a 10K

It's funny, 10 years ago, if you'd said that running 6.2 miles was a long distance, I would have agreed whole heartedly. Today, however, as I prepare for my first marathon in a month, it's just a 10K.

It was actually a great 10K. I ran the entire distance except for water breaks, because if I run and drink, I don't actually get the liquid in my mouth, more like all over my face. Many people would find a 10K in 1:17:02 to be a bad time, but for me, someone who could barely run a solid 3 miles just a year ago, that's a great time.

Some how in one year, I've learned to really love running. Now, if only I'd learn to really love my bike then I'd have a true love for triathlon.
