So, I just registered for the Law Enforcement Torch Run for The Special Olympics.
I’m doing the 5K (3.1 miles) and will probably be doing a combination of running and walking as I’m not quite *there* to be running 3.1 miles.
It’s going to be a good idea to do this though, as I’ve never entered a formal race and it would be nice to learn the “culture” of formal races.
I’ve also started to say a daily prayer that pretty much goes like this:
Dearest Baby Jesus in Heaven,
I know I’m super clumsy but if you could just grant me a little grace for this damn half marathon so I don’t break my ankle and have to hobble down the isle to my future husband I would really, really appreciate it.
For really real.
With love,
Julie
Oh yes, I power walked a little over 2 miles at lunch today. It was so damn gorgeous that I just had to get out of the office. I don't have any official data on those two miles because I forgot all my Nike+ stuff at home.
