Easter Sun Run - I finished this year!!

The annual Easter Sun Run 10k that my church helps out with was held Saturday morning. This year I ran with my friends Sarah and Chas and we all finished! I haven't had much luck with the Sun Run in the 2 previous years I trained for it - the first year I got dehydrated, passed out just past the 9k mark, choked on my gum and almost died (a looooong story!), and last year I got sick the day before the race and couldn't go. This year I almost didn't run because Friday I tripped running up some concrete steps and banged my knee and shoulder (a rather ridiculous and humiliating incident)! Fortunately, I didn't do any real damage so I sucked it up, ran the race, got across the finish line in just over an hour, and felt great!!! I guess the third time was the charm! ;)
