thank you! I thought i could do it but between full time job, babysitting every day, tutoring math everyday, bringing my kids to practice 3 times a week I find it hard to find a lot of free time to exercise.

Thanks for asking, Joy! It was my first 5K in 30 years. I ran strong and felt great. There was no official timer so I don't know how long it took, but I'm fairly certain I finished well under my goal time of 36 minutes. The race organizers said that by their cell phone times, I ran it in 26 minutes, but that seems preposterous to me.
