I'm home from my race. My official time was 28minutes, 32seconds. I was the 3rd place woman in my age group! So not only did I run and finish my very first 5k, I got a medal! My mom and dad were there along with DH and kiddos! I am on such a high right now. Two months ago I couldn't run a mile, and a few months before that I couldn't walk a mile!

SHANNON! SHANNON! SHANNON!!

What a great 2 months this has been for you.  You've reached your goal and trained to run a 5K at the same time.  I hope this high lasts for weeks!   Are you going to wear your medal to school?  Ok, just kidding.  BUT, you really need to post a picture of you and your medal here for all of us to see, then put it in your profile so you can compare it to your first 10K picture when that happens. 

I'm so proud of you for all this hard work and determination.
