For some reason, I agreed to run a half marathon May 30th on Ottawa Race Day.  I once ran 10 km every morning, when I was on the high school rowing team.  I thought, I can get back into that kind of shape in three months.  Then I realized that the half-marathon is 13 miles.  Which is not 10 km.  It’s more like 21 km.  If I ran from the station in the southeast end of Ottawa, I would finish in Bells Corners.  It would be almost like running to work from my house in Kanata.  Our promo co-ordinator Esther convinced me to participate in this event.  Her twin sister Judy convinced Esther to participate.  And there will be two other tiny little ladies running with us.  This is now my motivation.  I have to be able to at least complete the 13 mile run on May 30th, if only so I don’t embarrass myself in front of (and alongside) four tiny fitness women.  This video is my training with Esther…day one.
