Well I did my first 5k in my life on 10/11/14. I did the color run. It was so much fun. I was able to jog 95% of it and that was with hills. I am def not a hill runner but I went and finished with a time of 40 mins. For my first 5k with still being over weight and not running in months I think that is good and for my next race I will look to improve my time. Now to find another run.

Great result, glad you had fun.
I do need to warn you though....5Ks are a gateway race, next thing you know you're running crazy distances like 10K and half-marathons or longer.......madness, pure madness!0 -
Well done you!0
