I started a new job today. It's pretty low key so far. I feel like I don't know anything, which I don't. It's part-time and flexible, which is perfect for now. I'm excited to be working at my church. I'm giving back while earning just enough to pay a few bills.
My first 5k is Saturday! I'm so excited and scared. I'm running every other day. My best 5k was just over 32 mins on an indoor track. My best outside trail time was just over 39 mins. I want to hit 36 mins for the race. I'm going to keep running. I'm training in the afternoons in the Texas heat. I'm hoping that since the race is first thing in the morning, this training time will come to be an advantage. We'll see.
My last run yesterday I saw a snake! I don't like snakes. I screamed. The snake was going into a tree stump. Then as I passed a tree something suddenly shook in the tree and I screamed bloody murder, again. It was a squirrel. As I rounded the trail near where I had seen the snake I started freaking out and rightly soon. It was sunning itself! I screamed again and ran as fast as I could to get away. Needless to say by the time I needed to kick to finish strong, I had no kick left. Between screaming and the running away from the snake, I was gassed. I hope there are no more snakes on my path!
