Today my daughter won a free entry to a local race for next Saturday so I'm set to run (with her in a stroller) my first race. I am no where near where I want to be in terms of time (I am at 10:30 min/mile without a stroller) but who can turn down a free race entry? I'm a bit nervous and excited. I've seen those moms with strollers and some of them are really fast. I guess I just need to be more realistic and just enjoy race day. I actually need to run with the stroller at least once before race day.
Sometimes we just need to seize the opportunity in life (even when it's a bit scary).
