5K

I'm not sure I believe that I am writing this post....me, the one who hates running. Who, even when in my 'prime' was not a good runner. But 'tis true. I ran a 5K. It wasn't pretty (photo evidence proves my claim), but it's done! It took me 41:52...but considering I only trained for a week I'm not too sad. The important thing is that I jogged the ENTIRE time. I ran the race with my sis-in-law Heather and Lena (Jon's boss's wife). We were really proud of ourselves! We are actually looking for another race to run soon. (Part of my motivation is the free t-shirt) Hopefully next time we can improve our time. Lucky for me Heather was running beside me and helping 'pump me up' during the run. It was HUMID....so humid I felt the air pushing me to the pavement. It made it hard to focus on running. But together we pulled through. I can't say yet if I will turn into an avid runner....I still can't wrap my head around me ever attempting a marathon....but I do better if I have big goals to work toward. And races seem to be the push I need right now.

So here we are after the race. Funny that I chose to run with two skinny people....maybe I should pick different friends ;)

Well that is all. I've done a 5K, and I'm done for the day. hehe
