...Thanks CANDEE...you always have sound advice. :)<br /><br />REBECCA - I should try to capitalize off of the thrill and get to work right away on another goal...which one will it be? :)<br /><br />CLAIRE - you are such a good cheerleader! I will contact you for motivation if I do it again. :)<br />You SHOULD find another race and run it - to experience that "cloud" again.<br /><br />JEN - thanks! I don't see the half marathon in my future, but one never knows! Maybe you'll inspire me to try. :)<br /><br />Oh CATHY, "Just" a couple of 10k runs...Hmmm....

It turned out to be way easier than any gym workout and I was on cloud nine for days because I actually DID it!! I really need to find another race to run. You must feel like such a star!!!!

I know there is a world of difference between running a 10k on your own or with a couple of friends, and running one as a 'race' for your personal best in a crowd of people. You really have to stick with your goal and what you have learned in training to be successful - I guess that applies to most areas of life, too: keep your eye on the prize and have faith in all the work you've done to get there.Rebecca S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16409572371302109142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-20104090557419393522010-03-29T14:16:31.958-04:002010-03-29T14:16:31.958-04:00Congratulations on completing your race and your g...Congratulations on completing your race and your goal to finish in a faster time.<br /><br />I used to run long distances and I remember the feeling of finishing. "I'm so glad to be done and not quite sure I ever want to do that again." Hmm. Kinda like giving birth. Give it time and you might be willing to try again. ;)<br /><br />As to other dreams, you just have to keep putting one foot in front of the other, step by step, and slowly you'll see progress. Especially if you have a training partner to keep you accountible.Candee Fickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08158819887944287696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-15041495012334149812010-03-29T11:33:06.134-04:002010-03-29T11:33:06.134-04:00Hey EVERYONE!

I believe that we all need goals in life, or it is wasted opportunity and we only have one shot at it. Really trying for something doesn't necessarily result in success, but it makes you stronger and ready to be fired up and try again - well that's how i feel anyway!

Your hard work paid off brilliantly. <br /><br />Mostly, I do believe hard work pays off, but there are the occasional times, when no matter how hard you try, you don't get where you are trying to go.
