Cherry Fesitval of Races

A long term goal of mine has been to be a runner. As a self-professed major wimp, I knew this would be a tough road. We purchased a treadmill in December and I started training for my big race, which I thought would be 10K in May. For various reasons, I wasn't able to run the race, which made me extremely annoyed, angry and down-right ticked! I immediately signed up for the Traverse City Cherry Festival 5K. I didn't set the world on fire with my time, but I finished running the entire race. I loved the feeling of crossing that finish line and couldn't hide my smile.
We received pictures today and I knew I had a huge smile! What a great day, great memory and incredible first race!

Cherry Festival of Races

I'm back! Promise!

I've decided, after reading through my old posts, that I need to come back to blogging. Why? Well, even if no one else reads the blog, it will be a good way to document all of the great things we will be doing on our new adventure. We will be leaving TC for Alabama in just a few days and I want to remember so much. So, onward...here come the posts for a new adventure!
