I did it!! I completed our training session of trail running. I have never run trails, let alone run. It started out really hard trying to regulate my breathing. When we started Susie said "Let's run for 15 minutes". At the end of the run, I asked how long we had run for...45 minutes. Now, I didn't run the whole 45 minutes but it was my run and I did it at my speed. The other Phat Chick/Rockstar ladies are amazing from explaining their tricks for breathing, grabbing my hand to encourage me, high fiving at the top of a hill, telling me to remember to enjoy the view. I love you guys!
Susie rocks. She explained running technique, additional stretching and overall encouragement. She makes me realize my potential.
As we stretched, Susie explained our homework for this week. We are going to be busy girls...6 workouts this week - intervals, strength training, bike ride, cardio. You name it, we are doing it.
There is a group ride on Thursday night. I am disappointed that I won't be able to attend. I now work Thursday nights and have Friday afternoons off.
I heard one of my favourite songs on the drive home and it resonated even more today.
