This morning I had a goal of running 10km before work. I have never been one of 'those' people before. 10km seems like an exceptionally large number for me.. After hitting the snooze button twice and hearing Coach Crealy talking very loudly in my head about consistancy I got myself up and dressed, shoving a museli bar into my mouth as I head to the car.
I had planned a run at the inlet (same place we did the Women's Fun Run). The inlet is a 5km loop so I didn't need to worry about measuring my distance... I could just run. The sun was shining on the water, birdlife swimming.. rowers getting out on the water, loads of people walking, riding and running ... just like me.. I had forgotten my watch so decided to just run... enjoy the time to myself. I thought about Sarah and her friends in Brissy who are having trouble finding places to run.. I couldn't believe just how beautiful it was. I completed my two laps... yes that is 10kms in 1hr and 4mins... going by the car clock.. WWWWOOOOOOOHHHHHOOOOOOO! Now I am one of 'those' people.
