10k Freedom Run

Sam and I before the race
(it was a bit early and I look pretty tired - I'm not used to getting up at 5:30!)
(Tisha, Terri, Sarah and Me)
There were 4 of us girls from Rock Port that did the race. We have all been motivating each other up to this day! It was great to be there with such wonderful friends!

Here is me coming close the finish line - you can see Sam cheering me on!

We had a great day! I was so nervous for this day to come and even had a hard time sleeping the night before. It ended up being a great day and we crossed the finish line! That is all I wanted to do and I did it!! My time was 1:08 and Sam finished 1:04 - not bad for 6.2 miles and being way overweight only 4 months ago! I am so proud of Sam and I both for being able to do this. I would never had thought I could run one mile, let alone 6!
This was a great start to the weekend!
