Pushing the envelope

Yesterday Emory and I got up early and met some of his Galloway Group training partners for a 6.6 mile walk/run. I had never ran or walked that far before all at one time, so this was an exciting challenge for me. I was pleased with how well it worked out. I fell behind a few times but always caught up, and I finished at the same time as the rest of the group so I consider it a success! We started at the Y in Riverside and went past the Landing and over the Main Street bridge, down the Riverwalk, thu San Marco and over the Acosta Bridge and back to the Y. It was a beautiful morning and just reminded me of what a really beautiful city we live in. I can't wait to do it again. Next weekend I am doing the 5K (3.1 mile) part of the River Run and Em is doing the full 15K. I am very proud of him!
