Thank you all for your encouragement in my other post about being scared to do it! It was so much fun. If you are thinking about doing one, DO IT! I had my best personal time of 31:57! The first time I ever did a 5k outside was 45:00min! I tried hard not to cry at the finish line, but I did! I was so happy. I did it. Last year at this time, just doing daily activities was tiring. Now it is a whole new world for me. God has been so faithful. I think I am still "high" and it has been over for 2 1/2 hrs! I did get to see a lot of people that I went to school with and it was really cool seeing everyone! Thanks for listening. Jelly

Wow you have come a LONG way down.
I am so glad to hear that you feel healthier too.
That is the most important thing.
I'm really proud of you!

Great job now that I have exhausted my smilie repertoire

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!

That must feel SO empowering!! I'm doing my first one next Sunday. You've given me hope that I can do better than I thought!

Congratulations!!! That is a great time for a 5k! I'd be happy to do a 12 minute mile myself, but right now I'm pretty much just walking. You have earned some real bragging rights!!!

Congratulations!!! You rock!!! That's a great time!

Congratulations!!! I'm glad you did it and even gladder that you feel so great about it!

Congrats. Maybe I will sign up for this 5k I have been eyeing. I think I am the 45 min person hehe But it would be good to do one in a year and compare times!

Excellent!
