First 5k

Man, I am really behind on my blogging!   I am going to try really hard to get all caught up!

The beginning of August I ran my first 5K.  I was so nervous but really kind of excited too.  I had been working on the 9 week Couch to 5K program and was on about week 7.  I ran with my sister Tracy and brother-in-law Tyler.  They have both been running for several years.  My goal was not not be last, and be under 45 minutes.

Here is my sister and I before the race started


At the starting line

Tyler finishing (he is a stud!)

Tracy finishing (She is also a stud, this was her fastest time!)

and me, I FINISHED!  I wasn't last and I beat my goal by 7 minutes!!

During the race I was asking myself what had I gotten myself into, but when I was finished I was so proud of myself for what I had accomplished.

Next race, a 10K
   AACCCKKKKKKK!
