First 5k race

I ran my first 5k race on Saturday! (It was also my birthday, and one of the best ones yet!!) My official time was 38:41 (12:29mm pace) and my goal was 40min if I could run the whole time or 45min if I had to walk (I've been having some knee pain the last couple weeks) so I'm VERY happy with that time! I made it under 40min and I DID have to walk some! I walked most of mile 2, AND forgot to use my inhaler beforehand, and STILL got an awesome time!! SOOOOOO happy!!! :bigsmile:
