I did my first 5k this morning. I feel so great. I ran about a third and walked the rest, but I finished, and I wasnt last! This is defiantely going to be a repeat event in my life. Amazing how good it feels.

    oh congrats!! I laughed when I read that you weren't last. I remember telling my husband on the way to my first one last year "I just don't want to be last" :-)

    great job!
