Moving to Florida I had one friend; this one friend I met only once and talked to a few times on Facebook. Around September (2011) I decided I wanted to participate in the Race for the Cure 5K. I sent my new friend a message "So do you want to do the race for the cure with me" she said yes, to which I replied... and I want to run it. Like a true friend she said OK let's do it. So we ran; during the week and on the weekends, we mostly ran on our own. We went to the mall and bought new running gear for our first run together (a pattern we continue today). Early in the morning on October 1st we drove to St. Petersburg... How was I feeling... nervous, excited, and ready to just run... in public (more about my fear of running in public later). So we did it... we ran, only our second time running together and we finished faster than we ever thought we would. I think it is safe to say after that run we were hooked...
And so our running journey began, since that day we have run in three additional race... three unforgetable races.
