I CRUSHED IT!

I ran in my first 5K race this morning. I had been running it in about 41 or 42 minutes during my training runs, so I was hoping that for race day I'd come in under 40 (but secretly thinking I probably wouldn't). I came in at 35:40!!! I could not believe how hard I crushed my expectations! :bigsmile: I just had to share!
Here's a pic of me crossing the finish line-- it's foggy and blurry because of the rain
