*my first RUN ever*

i ran my first RUN ever on sunday.

***

here's the planner-collage i made

that was inspired by it:

*
*
*

i love reading about other people's successes and triumphs.

[DUH! I read blogs!]

it causes me to be

more motivated to reach my goals,

more optimistic in my attitude,

and therefore more likely to succeed myself.

here are pics i took from my Blackberry while

on the run/walk

over the

BrOOkLyn BRiDGe

& back:

#718

the fountain in

City Hall Park

where i

stretched out

my quads & hamstrings.

*

i spotted the

'KEEN' sisters

in the crowd
*

a helicopter

circled above us,

checkin' out the scene
*

"follow the sound of the bagpipes,"

the announcer guy told us.

over

the BrOOkLyn BRiDGe

5K runnin' feet

*

toward the end of the 3.1 miles,

the sky was clearing up,

and

boo ya!

skyline
*

oh, yeah: and *this* guy woke me up on time, drove me to Brooklyn, waited the 32 minutes and 55 seconds it took me to run the 5K, greeted me with a hug and kiss at the finish, bought me an after-the-race orange juice, drove us back home, and then proceeded to help me get a BBQ together to entertain friends [pics of which will be coming tomorrow].

what a *great guy* excelling in his boyfriend duties.

keep up the good work, hombre!
