10 K Survivor!

Today Twyla and I ran together for the first time. It was so much fun..let me rephrase that...it was enjoyable, nice to have someone to run with, to talk to while running. It didn't feel like we were in a race but just out for a run. We ran 10 km at the Heritage Race here in Peace River. It took 1 hour and 22 minutes, less time than I thought it would. I had told Darryl about 2 hours so he and the kids didn't show up until after we were already done. :( We (I say we because Twyla was nice enough to stay running with me at my SLOW pace) ran 5 walked 2 for the first couple intervals and then we did 10 and 1-2. We were the last in our age group to cross the finish line, but we finished. I DID IT! Makes me realize I really should be pushing myself harder when running during the week. It was so nice to share this experience with my sister, my oldest, truest friend.
