Tomorrow I will complete the last day of C25K. WOOHOO! I wasn't planning on signing up for a 5K yet, but there is one on my birthday, and I'm signing up for it tomorrow :)

It's to benefit the Ronald McDonald House in Buffalo, NY. Since it's on my birthday AND it's my first 5K, I was thinking of making a t-shirt to something of that effect. Would that be dumb? If you think it's a good idea, any tips or suggestions? Thanks.

    I think it is a great idea to celebrate yourself! The only suggestion I have is, for me personally, I cannot run in a regular cotton tee shirt, I get chafing on the inside of my arms... If you go through something like zazzle to have a shirt made they actually have tech shirts....

    Happy (early) Birthday and good luck on your first 5K! They become addicting. I did my first one last year and have done several and also have done a 10K and half marathon.. currently in training for my second half!
