How could I have forgotten to mention this?
I forgot to include my 5k in my update! Well, I did it! And it only took me 27 minutes and 36 seconds! Yay, what a blast! In case you don't know the backstory, every August 27th I do something special to celebrate the anniversary of the day I stubbed out my last cigarette and became a non-smoker back in 2003. This year, I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate seven smoke-free years than to do something I never could have done when my lungs were full of tar and soot. Yuck. I am SO glad I quit smoking. Don't know how or why I ever did it in the first place. It smells and tastes so awful. Tobacco in general is gross. The smell of it, even unlit, makes me want to vomit. Anyway, I felt so great after the 5k, I am now addicted! I'm still planning to do the half-marathon in the spring, hopefully March 17th for my birthday, and I was thinking it would be so cool to do a full marathon every single August 27th starting next year. Wouldn't that be cool? I can do it a different place every year and maybe talk some friends into doing it with me. I'd love that.
