5k

On Saturday Melanie, Lacey, and I all ran our first 5k. It was a lot of fun but also very hard. We all had our personal best times so we were happy with that. We didn't win but our goal for this whole thing was to finish without walking and we all accomplished that. I finished 53th out of 159 women with a time of 29 minutes 30 seconds. Definately want to improve my time but for now I am happy with that.
Here is a picture of the 3 of us before the race. Lacey and I before the race.

Melanie, Lacey, and I after the race. This was a little while after we finished because if we had taken a picture as soon as we finished it would have been terrible. We were so hot and sweaty.
We will all be running an 8k in September then a 5k in October and December (and maybe more if there are more scheduled). My next goal is to be able to do a half marathon next year. We'll see about that.

I think our before and after pics are switched around..but hey if it's hard to tell the difference that means we look pretty good after running a 5K!
