I ran my first 5k last august. I did it in 38.40 and was happy with that for me. I dont love to run, but i love when a good run is over. good luck!

ACDC = thunderstruck I like that one - gets ya pumped up.....

there are many thoughts on this - some people eat the exercise cals - some dont. Make sure you get your 1200 (or whatever it says) in every day. When your hungry - eat more of the exercise cals. It should work out in the long run. Slow and steady wins this race. :flowerforyou:

great job! good for you!!!
