NSV for me!

I just completed my 2nd 5k! I'm proud of myself because I used to hate running. But here since I've started with MFP, and I don't belong to a gym, I found that running gives me the most bang for my calorie buck.
So anyhow here were my times.
Riverbank Run 5k- May 2012- 36:06
Color Run 5k- Aug. 5, 2012- 31:02
I don't really believe that I shaved off 5 minutes! Especially since I have never really tried to be fast. I just run and try to pace myself, because I found that If I start too fast, I wear out. So pacing myself usually works better.
I guess the next goal is to do the 10k at the Riverbank next year!

Congrats, I also am not fond of running but after almost missing a connection while on vacation I decided it was something I must get over. A 5K is one of my goals and would be a huge NSV.0
