enjoy the moment

we did hills during our run today. we had a choice - either do a 3 mile run or a 5 mile run. i was planning to do the short run because my legs have been so dead this week. unfortunately, i had no idea where the turnaround was. so i just kept running and ended up doing the entire 5 mile hill run. good lord! that is the farthest i have EVER run, and we did it in less than an hour which is WAY fast for me. so, let's see, it was far, and it was fast. strangely enough though, i'm not really that tired right now. good sign, i guess.

of course, i can never really just enjoy the accomplishment of running so far and so fast today. i was actually disappointed because i was at the back of the pack, and practically the last to come in. it's my competitive nature, rearing its ugly head again. you'd think i could just learn to enjoy the moment.
