Well I woke up bright and early this morning to do my first 5k! It was a great experience and a big accomplishment for me!
So my photographer ( Carol's significant other) missed me at the finish line so I only have a pic of after wards but hey there's always next time right? I guess I was just too fast for him- ha ha.
So out of 572 people running I was the 289th person to cross the finish line! Woo hoo I wasn't last. I only had 2 goals not to be last and to run the whole thing which I did both!
It had been storming on and off this morning so we got a hot and muggy run while I was running I was just hoping it would start to rain again to cool off but no luck until after the race of course! So my final time was 31:35 ! I was hoping for under 30 but I am still very happy with my time- I had been doing it at home in 34 minutes so it was a definite improvement- hoping to sign up for a couple of more 5K's in July and start training to do a 10K in the fall!
Here's me Carol and Jenny afterwards- it had just rained so we are not as sweaty as we look! LOL
And here's Carol my awesome mom in law -this was also her first 5K- I am so glad she decided to do it with me! She rocked it at 38:22!
