I Ran the Jelly Bean

This  morning while The Captain prepared our pancake breakfast, I mapped a 5.0 km route so that we could run the Jelly Bean... a virtual race I signed up for at Run with Jess.

I was excited to get going, but did manage to wait a full hour after we finished breakfast before we headed out.

It was a beautiful morning... we ran the hilly route in 39 minutes and 2 seconds!  Not my best 5 km run ever but I was glad to finish.  At one point around the 4 km mark, I thought I was going to have to walk the rest of the way.  I did an extra one minute walk in the last leg and managed a running finish.  My legs are willing, the lungs, not so much.  YET. I shall perservere.
