Hocking Hills Indian Run!

Ok so I have been WAY out of the groove when it comes to working out and eating healthy. I used to be super active in sports my whole life and pretty much eat whatever I want and still be thin. So I guess I just assumed that I would magically stay thin after my sports career ended because...well, I don't know why! I just kind of "hoped!" Since that is definitely not the case, I realized I need to get my booty (literally) back into shape! 

It has been two years since I ran in any kind of race and was in any sort of shape. And I remember how fun it was, so I have made it a goal to get back into it. So, last weekend I went and ran in the 5k Indian Race.

Travis was there to support me (and to be my photographer I guess too lol). He got some good shots now let me tell ya...

Since the course was in one big loop, the shorter race distances had to ride on a bus to get to the starting line.
As embarrassing as it is, I was actually nervous to run this.

Coming up the last stretch!

I knew Travis was taking pictures at the end so I tried to keep my composure, but in all reality I was DYING!

 BEST feeling ever!

 Straight to the refreshments table... ha ha just kidding, but seriously.

This was probably my favorite race so far to run in because it was so unique. The majority of the race course was through the woods, which were beautiful. It was great because you pretty much had to watch your every step so it kind of distracted me from wanting to stop and start walking. I know that sounds pathetic but I am getting there!
