I'm a runner, and I know it

The day before, getting excited!

Papa Hannon
got a pretty sweet medal too!


As soon as I crossed that finish line (that I swore was never coming) my thought was "I'm a "10k-er now." Good bye 5k,  those are easy-peesy-lemon-squeezey (as my grade 8 teacher would say.)

I am so thankful my dad ran the race with me. He told me to just listen to my music and he would pace me. And boy, he did a good job because we finished in 56:34. 

9 whole minutes under my goal time.



Now what, you ask? Well I have another 10k on May 5th.
