First Practice Run for Terry Fox!

Since registering last night, I'm off to a good start! I took Layla in the jogging stroller (although she's getting a bit big for it!) out into gale force winds to go for a bit of a run in anticipation of the Terry Fox Run on Sunday, September 13th. I'm certainly still out of shape and have a long way to go to do a really great job, but I'm just so excited to be starting somewhere! Other than the wind toppling the stroller over at one point (sans Layla!), ears hurting a bit, the wind toppling Layla over while standing up and it often feeling like you're running uphill on a 45 degree angle, it went well! I got some running in, as well as some walking, and exploring breaks (what? I was with a curious 5 year old!) and also took a nice big log from a tree the was sawed up after falling over! Odd, yes. But also awesome! I was so excited! All in all, a great time!

Hopefully I can do it again soon before time flies away too quickly!
