5k What?…the continuation

Remember I won the 5k training?  Remember how I said I didn’t want to do it?  Well…I secretly wasn’t ever going to contact the trainer and hoped she would forget about me.  But you know how those runners are:  Motivated.  Energetic.  Optimistic.  She was at my front door before I had any excuses formulated in my head. 

My trainer’s name is Janna and she’s been running for years.  Lots of years.  She’s 53 and ran a marathon a few weeks ago.  However, despite my feelings of inadequacy, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER!  Somehow with her wily ways, she has made me excited about training.  And she doesn’t even laugh that I get winded tying my shoes. 

Janna made me sign up for two races.  The first is a leisurely 4th of July fun run.  It’s only 2.6 miles and mostly downhill.  I can do that.  The second one is in September and it terrifies me. You can check it out here:

I will legalize my last will and testament before the event just in case. My favorite Italian gets everything – you know who you are.  Too bad for the rest of you; should’ve been nicer to me.
