3-0!

I don't feel 30, wonder if that means I don't look 30?! I ran 3.1 miles this morning to start off the day. I actually ran it pretty fast...33mins. One of the moms I run with (3x a week) is 24 and she runs FAST! So my goal this morning was to keep up with her and NOT look like I was about to die when I got done. I stayed right on her heals the whole time and felt great when we finished. How's that for 30?

I have been running anywhere from 3.1 to 6.2 miles 3x a week for 9 months. I really feel great! I am working towards a 1/2 a marathon then maybe one day, in the FAAAR future, I will run a marathon. Don't know if that will actually happen, but nice to think about it. :) But 13.1, 1/2 a marathon I can totally see.

You know they say, "you are only as young as you feel" and right now I feel about 26, hahahahahaha!

A couple of Sunday's ago while attending services is Lakeland and man said, "how old are you... 25/26?" I laughed and said, "no, 29." His wife was standing with him and said "well, I guess we were way off on that one!" We all started laughing. Of course I wasn't offended one bit! :-D

    Take my word for it...you'll always feel like a little girl (or at least a young woman) on the inside. :) Best wishes, sweetheart.

    Happy Birthday to you!!! Being 30 isn't bad at all. Plus there really isn't anything you can do about it is there?!?! It's a blessing to be alive and whenever I start to feel like being 30 isn't a good thing I remind myself of that. Hope you have a wonderful birthday! Oh and you don't look a day over 25!!

    I must agree! You are as young as you feel! I feel about 24-26years old most of the time! I think I get younger as the Fall leaves begin to change!!! Congrats on running ! It is a rewarding activity!!
