Day 29, Small Things

Today, on Day 29, I'm thankful for small things like Coffee, and leftovers from Thanksgiving, and sunshine on a cool, crisp day, and playing ball with a dog who thinks you're the best person in the whole world, and the crispy, crunch of leaves, and lots of other small things that we just take for granted. Oh, and I didn't write about this, but I'm thankful that I ran my first 8k yesterday morning!My goals were to run the entire thing without stopping, to run around an 11 minute mile(or under) and to not be at the very bottom of my age group. And I accomplished all of my goals, which is pretty great, considering that I just started running 8 weeks ago! I ran an average pace of 10.37 minutes per mile, coming in at 51.38 minutes for the 5 miles, and was 239th out of 341 in my female age group. So, nothing to brag about, certainly, but all the same, exciting for me. =-)
