Today I completed my very first 10k (up and down hills, too). It took forever, about 1 hour and 45 minutes but I wasn't trying to rush. I burned 920 calories and I feel great!

Taking a minute to brag! :bigsmile:

    For the past few months we have been doing the hills, but only 4 miles, 4.5 miles at most. Today I wanted a challenge and completed it. It was awesome! Though, I don't jog the entire time. I walk up the hills backward. Jog down the hills.
