5K - "I'm a weeenner!"

This past weekend I went up to Missouri to visit my sister and her sweet little family. We had a great time playing and watching football and napping:) While I was up there I decided to run a 5K, which was the last item on my 26th year bucket list.

On my birthday last year, I made a list of 4 thing I wanted to accomplish this year: Pass the NCIDQ, run a 5K, go to Spain, and become LEED certified. (I've had to roll-over the LEED goal for next year, due to prerequisites and test cost $$$).

So on Saturday I ran my 5K. Now to many people, 3.2 miles seems like a joke (Jes) but to ME, 3.2 miles is forever. I've been slowly training all summer and then kicked it into high gear once we returned from vacation. I managed to run the entire thing without stopping and my final time was 37 minutes. It wasn't really that fun, but I'm really proud of myself for doing it. I also had Buzz Lightyear at the finish line, so that was a motivation in itself!
