Training Day 12: Wild Women of Wongo


So today was a big day for me... The anticipation and build up of running 12 miles was a big goal for me throughout this training so far.  It is absolutely amazing that every week I continue to surprise myself with what I am willing and able to put my body through.  Never would I thought that I would be capable of doing anything distance related at allllll!  But here I am 12 days into my training and running 12 miles with relative ease.  It was not until about mile 9 where my knees start to get tired.  And let me say that tired is different than hurt.  Ever since my first knee surgery I have been trained to listen to my body and determine if pain is good or bad or if my body just simply needs to rest.  And at times I wish I could say it was a bad hurt so I could stop lol but today nobody is pushing me but myself this goal of completing a marathon is a goal of mine.

Today is a HUGE celebration of my first big mile marker as well as it being NYE!! The tradition continues with my Wild Women of Wongo joining in festivities.  And now with me having run 12 miles today I can truly relax and sit back and enjoy ringing in this new year with my girls and new friends out here in Cali.  Happy New Years everyone! I hope you are going to have the best year yet and are able to find something to truly make your goals achievable this year!  Welp this girl is out... time to start partying :)

HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!
