early morning runs

for the last month i have been doing early morning runs with kay and jeh. they are training for a mini marathon at school and it will be happening this week. friday actually it has been really fun to do this with the kids. this morning we ran for 1.6 km which is a mile. i started with kay but she was running to slow so i went ahead of her and caught up to jeh. this is the first day that i have caught up to him he is usually way at the front of the line and i guess that he was today too i just happened to make it up that far too. i had to actually encourage him to keep running near the end but we both made it and it is amazing to me at how much easier it is getting i have actually started to enjoy running. i didn't think that the day would ever come when i enjoyed doing anything like that, but here it is. i have this crazy desire to exercise like all of the time. it lets me leave everything behind because i am way too tired to think of anything while i am running. i think that i would like to do a real marathon by the time i am 40 so that gives me five years to prepare for one now i just need to find one to do. i think that the boston marathon is a little to far away maybe one that is closer but who knows it might be fun to say that i ran in the boston marathon. how long is that one anyway? i don't remember. now i challenge all of you to go out and start running too. okay maybe don't start just running but start walking at least and make sure that it is a fast walk. it will make you feel so much better. happy running!!!
