Day 2: Day of rest
First off, thanks for all the comments and notes of encouragement! I hope you continue to read my posts!
I never realized the power of the Facebook status. Yesterday I changed my status on Facebook to "Kira started running today," and I got so many comments from people you'd think it was my birthday. (I even got a 'wtf' from Lanta) So it wasn't surprising when my teammates at volleyball tonight were all commenting on how I'm a "runner" now. So when the ball would fly out of the court they would say, "Hey! Go get the ball, runner!" Runner? I mean the word was dripping with sarcasm, but still...runner? Let's be clear. I am not a runner. I am a non-runner who is trying to run. A non-runner runner if you will.
In the meantime.. I'm getting psyched up for tomorrow's run! I got a lot of advice, and hopefully I'll be able to take advantage of some of it! Stay tuned...
Peace

About Me
- Kira
- A lifelong resident of South Dakota, I've been teaching mathematics since the Fall of 2004. As a professional educator, my goal is to engage my students in a world-class education. For me this means staying current with what works in education, specifically in the area of technology. Last summer I earned my Masters of Technology in Education - the Global Program from the University of Michigan - Flint and spent two summers in Switzerland to complete the program. In the Fall of 2009 I was honored (and surprised!) to receive the Milken Family Foundation Educator Award. I teach Algebra 2 and Geometry Survey at Washington High School in Sioux Falls, SD. Thanks for checking out my little blog!

Kira! I am so proud of you! You are going to love this. I want to hear about it the day you conquer the 19th St hill. You will feel like Rocky that day. Good work sister. Keep it up!
Is there an echo in here? You sound exactly like my wife when we started running. You may be a non-runner running but in the course of time, you will be a Runner Running
Hehe...I'm glad that we can support your efforts in whatever creative ways we can think of. :)
