On Saturday, I ran 15 miles with the DFMC group. We ran from the Marathon Sports in Wellesley to Cleveland Circle and back. It was my first time running 15 miles since August and it felt amazing. 15 miles is the longest I have ever run.
Yesterday, I heard from my patient partner’s family by email. They confirmed with me that they will be at the meet up party on January 25th and look forward to meeting me. I can’t wait to meet the family and get to know the child that I am running for. This will be a wonderful experience by putting a smile on a child’s face knowing that someone cares about them outside their own family.
Tonight, I ran 5 miles in the pouring rain in Natick Center. I ran the fastest I have ever run with a 10:43 pace. If only I could keep this pace during the marathon I would finish in under 5 hours. My goal for the marathon is to finish in under 5 hours. Let’s hope!
