Half-way!

We took our run to the beach today -- parked at Adventure Village and made our way east. We had never taken the path that way before. The scenery was so lush and green, we almost forgot we were in Stinktown. Almost.

Believe it or not, we reached today's goal and actually ran 5km. 5km! It was definitely no easy task, though. I had just about enough by 3.5kms but Adam once again was my great motivator and gently pushed me to finish. I just kept thinking to myself "I've pushed out two babies, I can do this!" Although, pushing out babies is something my body was going to do whether I was ready or not -- this is altogether different, but you know what I mean.

The point is, we did it. We ran 5km and, although parts of it sucked really bad, it was all worth it for the big, sweaty hug at the end.

In other news, we are now at $305 raised for United Way of Burlington and Greater Hamilton! We have to thank the following people for their love and support:

Wendy & Steven Lowden
Joan Chrysler
Erin Jackson
Jeremy Gowling
Jacqueline Cantar
Anthony Cascella
Meg Eliz
Ashley Babics

Also, a special thanks to my mom, as we wouldn't be able to get out to run every other day without her watching our kids. THANKS MOM! xoxo
