Okay...I've had a few less-than-monumental NSV (well, not enough to share...just celebrated in private!), but this past weekend I completed my first 5K. I didn't do over-the-top great, but I did finish the race.

It was a trail run, to boot!!!

Such a sense of accomplishment.

    There's definitely a sense of addiction. I'm not ready to work towards a half-marathon or anything, but I definitely want to see how well I can improve my 5k time over the next couple months!!

    i want to run a 5k with my son this upcoming fall - thanks for the great motivation! My son will probably finish and then have to run half way back to find me but its a long term goal!!

    You can totally do it - and you've got tons of time between now & then. I was hoping to start training back in February/March, but put it off because weather, kids, etc... So, I really only had 2 weeks of training under my belt. I didn't run the whole time - but felt great.

    If you have an iPod, download the Couch to 5k podcast. It walks you through week by week.
