Why do I do this? Get up at such a forsaken hour!

So every Tues/Thurs, I get up at 5AM to be out the door to meet my buddies at 5:50AM at Shelley Lake for a short run before heading home for shower and then work. Why do I do this? Because I love my buddies. We called oursevles the SAGgers - Slow Ass Group. When we joined the NCRC Women Begineer's Running Group, we were in the the slowest group and ya know we did not care. We had fun running at our pace, at our stride and chuckling and having a good time. When the program ended, we continued with a great leader Jean who leads this group. Pam, Mel and I would always be together and we had lot of fun even though we are either freezing or hurting. So for a while Pam could not come because she had knee surgery and then Mel hurt her ankle.

So I went running with Norma and Jean. Both of them taught me a lot about running and pacing myself.

This past week, I got real sick so I had to ease back into running. It was great fun this morning to be joining Pam and Mel again.

So looking forward to running again with them on Thurs.

Oh did I say Sat AM as well? That is usually our longer runs.

Take care til next time
