As a sort of Mother's Day gift to myself, I decided to do something for myself, and run my first 5k of the year. My goal was to meet or beat my previous best 5k time of 30 minutes. I hadn't exactly been training, so I didn't know if it was possible, but I decided to do my best and see what happened. I ended up finishing at 28:55! I was so happy! It was great to start my Mother's Day weekend out on a high note, and the day just got better from there. After the run, I spent the afternoon with my mom for Mother's Day. We went out to lunch at a favorite local BBQ restaurant, and then went for pedicures. Especially after being away for so long, I feel so lucky to live just down the road from my mom now so we can do things like this. And now I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Happy Mother's Day!
