ALS Betty's Run

June 12, 2011...Remember in my first post I said I was going to do a 5K on June 12? Well guess what today was? My run. But here's the kicker! I ended up doing an 8K instead, that's 5 MILES!  It was definitely not easy, but I DID it! Thanks to Chelsey, my friend and my SFL coach. She stayed right beside me and made me feel like I could do it. Here's the thing. They had the 5K walk/run which I know I would have done really well at, but then they had the 8K run which I KNEW would push me out of my comfort zone. I think this is the first time in a long time I've made a tangible goal and accomplished it. It's an amazing feeling. Thanks for believing in me everyone. I love you all.
