They finally opened the pedestrian bridge they've been working on for close to a year. This makes riding from my house to the Erie canal so much easier and safer.
Took a nice hour long ride this afternoon. It was a little chilly at 48 degrees but I'm not complaining because it could be 30 and snowing this time of year.

My first race shirt!!
Today we did 5 minute runs with 2 minute walks. Once again for you pro runners....don't laugh. For those of us just starting it's a huge accomplishment. To think we started with just 30 second runs, and to see how far we've come is very exciting. It was a difficult run for me today because of this chest cold, it made breathing a little tough.
On Thursday I run my first Turkey Trot. From what I understand with there being 5 thousand runners it is chaos. It's only a 2.5 mile run but I have yet to run that distance all at once. I am determined to do it, there will be NO walking!! I am running 11 minute miles which one of the coaches said was "respectable". I just laughed when he told me. I at this point am not concerned with how fast I am...my goal is to just run the whole thing!!
Have a great day!

Encouraging words...
A good friend gave me a pair of gloves today with this quote on them. This is so true for me!!

Happy Halloween
Always wanted to do roller derby so Halloween this year was my chance. I had a blast!! We had no boundaries that night so wore it there and won a prize for best costume. Obviously changed into my sneaks for our run.
Also turned 44 that day. Looking forward to all the running milestones I will pass this year!!
