First of all let me start by saying how excited I am that my brother in law Jesse has finally found the right girl! The first night I met her I knew that she was great for him. I even sent him a text and told him that he would end up marrying her. She is just a sweet, normal, down to earth, southern girl. That is really all I have ever wanted in a sister in law. If he screws this up and does not marry her I will murder him! I say all this to get to my point. This past Saturday I sent Kelly a text to see how her last OB appointment had gone. We were texting back and forth when she told me that she had just run a 5k. I was shocked. Homegirl ran a 5k and she is like 13 weeks preggo. She is like superwoman or something. Anyhow, I told her that one of my bucket list items was to run a 5k. Her response, I will teach you to run. I was floored. How sweet! Needless to say to those of you who know me well, my only GA sister in law on Lee's side has never been nice to me like this. It felt so refreshing. This is truly the kind of sister in law I have always prayed for. Don't get me wrong, Brandon's wife Lisa is great, and she always does kind things for me too. I just don't have anyone here in GA on Lee's side, until now :)
So, Kelly quickly informed me what shoes to get and asked me if I was available this coming Saturday to train. I feel a little bad because I don't think she realizes that I have literally been in bed sick for the last year. Oh well, I am determined so we will get there together! I went Monday and got the Nike plus and sensor. I also downloaded tons of running songs onto my iPhone. I got the couch to 5K ap and was ready to get started Tuesday. Of course I wake up Tuesday not feeling well. By the time I got home I fell into bed and did not get up until around lunch time Wednesday. The evil stomach virus had attacked! The good new is I think I am just about over it. No matter what I am doing some sort of working out tomorrow. I cannot let this super sweet girl down.
Hopefully you will be hearing more from me soon on my training and plans to run my first 5k. I won't lie though, I will probably be writing about my lovely sister in law to be and my future niece or nephew too. Until then, I am just excited about the future!
