I am BOLDER!

Having turned 50 last year, I had a few "things" on my list to prove I could still do or was brave enough to try. One of them was running a 10K. 

So in February this year I downloaded a training app and set about learning how to jog again. I started by struggling to run 90 seconds and ended my training just 3 days before the Bolder Boulder with a 6.1 mile run... that left my ankles feeling tweaked for the next 3 days!

Cara and I were signed up for the NM wave. Suitable for walk-joggers who mostly jogged. And we did. IN A RAINBOW TUTU! 



The only stops we really made were for photos, marshmallows, a bit of water and the dreaded potty break around mile 4. 



Fun times! 

We dug deep and finished strong. (Cara darn near caused me to sprint over the finish line and even if that was uncomfortable in the moment, I'm really glad she did!)

I did NOT have sore feet the next day - in case you were asking.  :-)
