First time race!
 
Well... I did it.
I began training in September for my first 5k race as a runner.
Training was tough but has been paying off in several ways. I feel better, energized, people notice the weight loss and I feel good about myself.

My goal for this first race as a runner was to 1) finish the race and 2) finish the race in under an hour. I did both. I went into the race with an anticipated goal time of 54 minutes... I did better. I finished in 48 min and 44 seconds. Happy day! :carrot:

So, now I want to do more races and have been looking at my next one to participate in. I never thought I would be a runner but it benefits me in more ways than one!! :smug:

Congrats!!!!

I love the NSVs that have to do with a race of some sort.

Keep up the good work and you'll just keep bringing in those personal bests!
