I started running back in mid-November of last year. It wasn't my idea initially and I had my reservations about starting up because we were heading into cold, wet, wintry season. We started the Learn to Run clinic through the local Running Room store. The weather, true to prediction, was crappy. We ran in the wind, rain and in some cases the snow, 3, sometimes 4 times a week. We finished the Learn to Run clinic, and then made the jump to the 10K clinic. And finally, almost 4 months to the day we started to run, we finished running our first 10K distance...followed by completing the Sun Run 10K run with 51,000 other people last Sunday.]]> http://www.secretoptimist.com/2010/05/16/the-run-down/feed/ 0
