    This morning in 49 degree weather and a wind chill that made it feel 43 I completed my first 5K...not last place and definitely not first place but I completed and beat my goal time of 45 min....44:28. I knew I would walk the whole thing but, I was ecstatic when I finish and cried like a baby! In July of this year I was having a hard time of doing 2 miles in 40 min so I am very proud of my self...to top it off I lost 5.5 lbs this week as well...

    Congratulations!!! Just getting out there and completing the 5K is a great accomplishment - you do have much of which to be proud. Do you have another one planned? ;)

    No not yet but I know of one that will come up around Thanksgiving...I may do that one! Thank you!

    You can do it! I did mine alone as well...not technically alone...my mom and twins drove the path and got out and cheered for me along the way! Sometimes we have to do things alone...I actually like walking alone because I dont have to talk I can just focus on what I am doing!

    Way to go!! I am doing my first 5K on Thanksgiving morning. Drumstick Dash. If I can make it to the finish line....I will be happy. Not worrying what my time might be. Just making it to the finish line.

    I felt that way this morning as well...I had a wish when I signed up to finish in 45 min and didnt care this morning until I saw my time...Finishing is the utmost high!
