Off and Running

As you know, I don’t run.

So today, I didn’t run another 5K.   I didn’t show up at the Cooper Aerobics Center in McKinney with my family, and I most certainly didn’t meet these four other wonderful ladies there:

I didn’t have my shuffle all loaded, charged and ready to go.  I didn’t get all excited as I crossed the starting gate:

I didn’t run that full 3.16 miles as it wound its way through the Craig Ranch development.  I didn’t make that final push as I saw the finish line and heard the announcer call my name:

And after not doing all that running, you can bet your bottom dollar I didn’t do the victory dance when I made it through the red arches:

My husband and children so weren’t proud of me.  I know for sure I wasn’t proud of myself or my accomplishment…and I’m already not looking forward to not doing this again next year.
