I'm running a 5K tomorrow for the first time in 4 years. It's going to be tough. I need to stop reminding myself that I've run marathons. I haven't run marathons in 10 years. I haven't run 3 miles at once in nearly that long, too.
That would tell most people that maybe they shouldn't do it. But. My son is coming with me. He's doing the kids' fun run and I want him to see me finish, even if I have to drag my sorry ass across the finish line on my knees.
This time tomorrow, I'm sure I'll be walking funny. And it'll be time to sign up for the next race; if my son likes the kids' run, I'll find one with a longer race than just 1/4 mile. He'll finish that in 3 minutes, I'm sure.
