I ran my first 5k last night around a local lake. I am pretty stoked. The farthest I had ever ran before that was 2.2 miles without stopping. Just had to share my excitement!!!

    Great run! :smile: How are your legs this morning? Now you need to sign up for a 5k race (if you haven't already) - so much fun! Congrats!

    Legs are a little sore but not much really. And yes, that's my next goal: to do a legit 5k race. I made it in 29 and 1/2 minutes. I was pretty proud of myself! LOL
