Last Saturday I completed my first 5K. It was a walk, not run, but I still think it was beneficial in helping me realize just how far a 5K really is. I'm still only doing a little under 2 miles on my C25K runs so I still have a ways to go.
My mom and I walked together and kept up a good pace the whole time. Unfortunately, I ended up with a blister on my toe and my shins were a bit sore afterward (I'm only used to the treadmill!). Otherwise, it went really well and now I'm even more pumped up for Race for the Cure! I think I've talked my mom into walking it, but I'm still going to attempt the run. We're hoping to put a small team together for Race for the Cure and I can't wait!
