I ran a little less than a 5k in april this year but then I stopped running for a while because of school, drama and so on.. 2 weeks ago I decided that it was time to get it going again, and I ran my first 5k since april in 31,5 minutes today! I trained like a beast for less than one week and I'm very proud of myself since I did it quite smoothly. (of course I've been running on and off but maximum for like 10-15 minutes..:() I'm proud, and I'm ready for the next step! My next goal is a 10k! :D Since I got to the 5k in less than a week I can't wait!

    Congrats! Running my first 5K was nothing short of life changing for me... that was almost 15 years ago now and I've gone on to do marathons. ;) Based on the fact you've already got your eye on another race (and a longer distance), I'd say you "caught the bug," too!

    Go get 'em!
