First Group Run

This picture sums up my run yesterday.

Every Saturday the Miles For Miracles team meets for group runs. I was able to join the team this weekend for our 12 mile run. It was a great experience to meet all the other people running for Children's Hospital.

It was also great since it gave me a chance to run part of the Marathon Course as we ran from Wellesley, MA to Newton, MA. The hills were challenging but I was able to finish the 12 mile run in about 1 hour and 45 minutes.

The toughest part about the run was avoiding the ice and snow as well as all the other people out training and running the marathon course. The cartoon above was literally how it was this Saturday since it was such a nice morning out as well. It was only about 35 degrees but the sun was out so that made everyone come out of their houses for a nice run.

Today I feel really good so I'm happy to be almost 1/2 way there and on track with my schedule. I'll keep everyone posted throughout the week on my training.
