It is a Happy Thanksgiving

I am so extreamly proud of my self. I just finished the Road race (5 miles) in 57 minutes. I wanted to finish in less then an hour & I did. I have been training since around August. Next year I will aim for 45 minutes. I ran most of the race I walked for about 12 min out of the 57. I kind of got terry eyed when I saw the finish line & realized I accomplished what I set out to do. I was running for my father. He was a runner & passed away 4 years ago this November. I thought of him as I was coming upon the finish line. I think he was pushing me to go.
