I ran my first 5K ever this morning! I was a bit nervous and my goal was to finish, and hopefully not last. I came in 78 out of 110 with a time of 32 minutes. I'm actually very happy that I finished and ran the whole way. It's amazing, since a couple years ago I wouldn't have imagined running 5K.

Next goal is to break 30 minutes and start training for a 10K. It's such a great feeling to be able to participate in a race.

Hey congrats on your first 5k.

I'm sure your success with the time and the 10k are just around the corner.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks everyone, and yes a bike, and wetsuit are in my future. I'd love to do a sprint tri this summer as well.
