So I decided to register for a 5K before I even started working out. :noway: It's coming up at the end of this month, and I had NO idea how far I could actually walk/run. I do the stationary bike at the gym and work out with a trainer 3 days a week, but I don't do the treadmill because my feet are so bad.

Today, I just decided to DO IT, but to walk in the city so I couldn't just stop when I wanted to. I still had to get back home!

I knew I could walk it, even if it took me all day. What I DIDN'T count on was that I would walk the entire thing WITHOUT STOPPING. My feet are seriously pissed off, but I did it...in less than an hour! That's a big deal for me! LOL :drinker:

Thanks to my MFP family. You guys are SO awesome!!! :flowerforyou:

That is awesome! And the whole still gotta get myself home thing is funny... i do that too.

Try soaking your feeet in warm Epsom salts after a long day of walking to soothe them.
