Determination

"You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction." - George Lorimer

Nicky and I are running in the Tough as Granite.  We've never been big runners, so when we made it a goal to complete a 5k run, we had our work cut out for us.  When we started we were winded after a 1 minute run.  Well, race day is less than 3 weeks away, and our training is coming along nicely.

Tonight was especially hard, we were both tired, we had a long weekend, and I didn't get off of work on time.  Neither of us were really feeling like running, and Nicky actually took a nap after the kids went to bed.  Used to be, that meant we'd skip the run.  Not today.. we ran that run SO HARD!

That's the really neat thing about running - The harder the run, the more satisfying the finish.
