15 Things That Went Through My Mind As I Ran A 5K On Thanksgiving

November 24, 2016

1. I am pumped! I can do this. 5K, that’s nothing. Its like 3.17 miles. About 10 songs on my awesome running playlist.

2. I am starting off well! I am gonna beat that one girl with the complete lululemon outfit.

3. Wow. This is getting hard but this song is good so I am going to keep going.

4. What is this? Who put a hill here, did this used to be here?! I thought Ohio was flat.

5. Omg. Is that little 5 year old beating me? Wait, where is the lululemon girl!?

6. OH THIS IS MY JAM! I CAN DO THIS (gets really into the song and turns up the volume so I can’t hear the gasping of my breath).

7. Oh I could have so done a 10K.

8. Get that cup of water away from me? I am invincible, I don’t need water. Pff, its too hard to drink and run at the same time.

9. Actually, can I go back for some water now?

10. Woah. My legs feel like they weigh a ton. Am I wearing ankle weights?

11. Okay I am so not doing a 10K next year. Wait my headband keeps falling off, have to fix it. Skips song because why is it even on this playlist.

12. I CAN SEE THE FINISH LINE! Pumped up song just happens to come on.

13. I CAN DO THIS! Passes lululemon girl, sprinting as my stomach contracts and yells for help.

14. 30 minutes!? YES, I HAVE DONE IT.

15. I AM READY FOR MY TURKEY NOW. Maybe next year I’ll be ready for a half marathon? 10K maybe?

I am head over heels for Berlin. However, from the first day we arrived I was not happy with the location of where we were staying. Everything is about an hour away and a lot of planning in involved whenever we want to go anywhere. It is like living in the inner suburbs of a city. The only thing that has eased this minor pickle is the majestic public transportation.
