    Don't lose heart if you have to walk. Make sure to get out there early and stretch/ warm up with a light jog. Even if you have to walk the whole thing, don't give up! You can do it. This is your first 5k so don't lose heart. And what's really important is, after the race is done, do another one! Keep signing up for them. Having paid the entrance fee is a great motivator to actually run the race.
    You can do it! Congratulations on taking on this challenge.
