Dream come true

There is a beautiful, pleasant and scenic lake called Lake Scranton near my house. There is a trail around the lake for 3.5 miles a haven for fitness enthusiasts who run or walk around the lake. I started walking around the lake two summers before and use to always struggle to complete 3.5 miles. I use to see lot of people running around the lake and completing the entire stretch. I wondered then on whether I will be able to run like that. I don’t even remember of me running 100 or 200 meters in school or college. I was never a runner and never had a motivation to push myself so hard for running. The game what I chose to play (volleyball) also helped the cause, not much need for running, stand and play. I have been running for the past 1 year or so in the tread mill or in the track in YMCA just to shed the extra few (40-50) pounds that I gained after joining cognizant for work. I am still clueless on how I really gained so much weight; probably lot got to do with my moms cooking. Running helped me a lot to reduce the extra pounds, I feel lot fitter now. Yesterday my dream came true, I ran the entire stretch of Lake Scranton in 45 mins.
