Well every one, we survived the Victoria 10 K!!!! We walked it and got a time of 2 hours, 9 min and 5 seconds for me and 4 seconds for my mom! Kassidys first 10 k and she did quite well! I was very proud of my self that i finished it! I wish i would have tried a little bit harder to train for it, But thats ok next time right. maybe i will run it! ;) Yeah right! Not going to happen! One can dream of course. The first few K were pretty hard. I got to the 4 K mark and was shocked it was taking so long... By the 6th i was doing great more then half way done and the numbers were flying by! But we hit the 8th and i thought i was going to die! I kid you not 8 K sucks. By the time the 9th came a long i was pretty sore. Blisters on both my feet and muscles tensing up! Around the 9th Ruth our good friend came to meet us and cheer us on! Its was ok after that! We finished they announced our names as we came across the line and they asked how old Kassidy was! It was very exciting!!!!
So her is a tip for any one who is walking or running one of these... Dont stop! We stopped a few time's to tend to baby and starting up again was painful! Also at the end dont stop! slow down for sure but keep moving all the way to your car then go home and rest! lol! its not that bad but good thing to think of if your new to this! Also Do a little bit of walking before hand! More then i did! To get ready! And remember the most important part have fun! Its not a race! Its an adventure! The more you do the more you would like to improve but its ok! you dont have to be a super star!
The day before the race we went to Victoria early and took some pictures of baby at the parliament Buildings. The same spot we got our Belly pictures done! So that was fun!
