10K Run

Sunday morning, my brother and I took part in a 10K run to support the Siena Francis House. We ran around Zorinsky Lake at 8 in the morning. It was a beautiful day - I couldn't ask for much better. Apparently, hundreds of other people agreed. There were also a 5K run and a 5K walk. In case you were curious, I finished in 46 minutes. And then scored some free yogurt and Gatorade afterwards. Woot!

Running through the beauty of nature like that is so much better than running laps or going through my normal neighborhood route. 6.2 miles would seem really long otherwise, but it's interesting to me how with new things to look at, I don't even need my iPod to keep myself going. So many people (including myself usually) view running as a laborious chore, but on this occasion, it was really enjoyable. Probably the way it's supposed to be, huh?
