OMG I RAN!!!!!!!!

Today I went to my sons track meet. After I saw the coach at the gym the other day, she asked if I would help with the meets, scoring and stuff. Well when I went there tonight I was recruited to help with measuring the length of the discus and shot put throwing. Well the shotput was easy, they only threw those perhaps the most 30 feet. Well the discus was different. A bigger field and of course they were throwing over 80 feet. Soooooooooooooooo, after walking back and forth to measure the distance I decided it was going much too slow. So I started running out to the field. I haven't ran in almost 20 years!!!!! I couldn't believe it. It was comfortable, I didn't feel awkward, and not a whole lot bounced around!!! After the meet was over my son and I were walking the track back to the car. He said "Mom, you ran today." I said "yeah I did." Then he said "I'll race you." Well I ran again!!! I ran the straightaway on the track, not winded at all, and I felt great. I was so proud of myself I wanted to just run home!!! I am afraid my knees aren't going to love me, but who cares??? I RAN!!!!!!!!!!! Donna "the runner"
