WE DID IT!

Cherice and I just got home from an EIGHT MILE RUN! I am so proud of us! We both could have kept going. Doing 7 miles last weekend, about killed us both. Last week we were doing the Relay for Life, and were running in a track-like atmosphere, and it was TOUGH! This morning was GREAT! We took a few stretching breaks, and I can happily say my aches and pains that I normally have during a run, didn't happen this morning. I think I may actually be able to do this half marathon! We have about 7 weeks left! Thanks to my new Garmin Forerunner 305 watch - (LOVE IT - EVERYONE should get one) our fastest pace was 7:58 mph! That's super good for us! Anyways, just tooting our own horn!

Nice work! You and Cherice are definitely going to outrun Jon and I. I feel like I just can't get back in shape. I'm so proud of you! If someone would've said a year ago that you would run eight miles and not die, there's no way you would've believed them. Now look at you!!! Awesome job!
