I ran my first 5k on Saturday! In costume, too! I wasn't thrilled with my time -- ran it in 32 min, but in my practice runs on the same course I'd done it in just under 30 min. But I'm still happy I did it!

    Congratulations! I ran my first 5k this past Saturday as well and it was awesome! Your time is actually great - I ran mine at an average 11:45 per mile and was very pleased with my time. Keep up the great work!
