patty cakes and i got our happy little butts up at 5 am to run our first 5k of the year. it's not like i really had a goal in mind except to finish. but i was nervous about how patrick would feel. he still hasn't warmed to the idea of any kind of physical exertion. and for him to get up before 10 am to run, in the cold, on a foggy day is never his idea of a good time. oh the things he does for love :)
our times are obviously not notable. they are recorded here for accounting purposes.
1: 12:27 2: 14:02 3: 15:18 T: 41:48
i have a 5k planned for the beginning of next month and i'm hoping to get him to do more running and less walking. by march, hopefully he'll be able to do it on his own without me baiting him to the finish. i enjoy being there for him, but i'd like to run my own race too. and see how he does pushing his own ass.
we're rewarding our efforts with a very relaxed day at home. uggs. trackpants. snuggies. the whole bit. happy sunday.
