Today was the Jingle Bell 5K Run that benefited the Arthritis Foundation.
I ran in memory of my Grandmother who suffered from Arthritis for as long as I can remember (and maybe even longer than that).
Last night I did in fact have the full blown stomach flu. I just prayed and prayed that I could make it to my run today, I didn't want to let my friend down who I helped train for this 5K.
I got myself up and made it out to the run. The forecast today was 46 degrees and rainy. There seemed to be a break in the rain during the duration of the run. With the condition outside and my physical condition I was just praying that I could finish the race without walking (or getting sick).
Not only did we finish the race but we finished a few seconds ahead of our team goal. We set a goal when we started training to run our 5K in 33 minutes we ended up finishing at 32 minutes and 47 seconds.
My friend and I ready for the race! I'm so proud of us!
We met up with my Uncle who was also running in the race.
