Happy Easter everyone! I hope the Easter Bunny was good to everyone! We had a crazy Easter bunny who even hid eggs in trees! Can you see the orange egg hiding in the tree?
Yes our daughter had a great time Easter egg hunting in our front yard this morning. We headed to my parents for a late lunch and ofcourse it was yummy. My mom is a great cook and I made a delicious carrot cake. It was packed with carrots, raisins and walnuts....it was a meal in itself!
So knowing I would be eating very well today I wanted to go for a 5K run in the Caledon countryside. Unfortunately I forgot to put on my knee brace and I did feel it after 2 miles and my pace drastically slowed down. I wanted to do the 5k today at 24 mins, but realistically I thought I would run it at 25 mins. I was on pace for 24 mins but after my knee called it quits that was not going to happen. But I did do 5K in 25:16 mins. Not bad I guess. I was a bit disappointed but my DH made a good comment, "You have only been running for 3 weeks"....which is very true. I guess that time is pretty good for a newbie runner! And lesson learned.....I need to wear my knee brace!
