  • Thanks everyone for the encouraging words! I figured I was going to be kind to myself and my goal in my first 5K is to complete the run! I can think about the time later!!

  • I have a similar goal as well - getting rid of all processed food in the house, less carbs in my diet, more fruits and veggies, making better choices and most of all - exercise every single day ( goal of at least 5 days a week with more outdoorsy activities on weekends).
