Do I enjoy pain?

So we survived our first 5k earlier in the month.  But since we all survived, we decided to try to kill ourselves again.  We're smart.  Smart, smart people.  Who love running until we almost collapse and *still* come in towards the end of the race.  :)

We're doing another one on April 9th - it's at the Darlington Race Track and to be honest, I'm getting pretty excited about it.  For one, I know for a fact I won't die running a 5k so that's a HUGE bonus and also, the race itself is to raise money for breast cancer research and how can I NOT participate?  And the race has a catchy name "Operation Rack Rescue" - LOVE IT. 

Then we're running in another 5k in May - The Race for Taylor over in Florence.  Another race for a good cause that I'm pretty excited about.   If that weren't enough, I just found another 5k in Hartsville in June that I think Al and I will do (I'm going to try to talk Pam into this one too but since it's in June, she may resist) although it's probably going to give both of us a heat stroke.  Hopefully someone will drag me across the finish line so I can at least say I finished.  :)  

I'm almost ashamed to admit that I am beginning to find enjoyment in running.......until I'm actually running/sweating/wheezing and then, I hate it.  Still.
