WOO HOO!!!! I completed my first 5K

After two weeks of two pulled hamstrings(done seperately),having the 24 hour flu, and then a cold which ended with laryngitis I managed to complete my first 5K run. I have been training since Jan, and wasn't going to let anything stop me. Thank goodness it didn't rain 'cause I might have cuddled back up under my covers.

My time was 32:53, and I was amongst the top 20 in my age group. I finished 18th of 77 in my group. I was doing 1km every 6:35 minutes. The fastest time was 16minutes and something......can you imagine 1km every 3 minutes. WOW!!!

I managed to beat my little sister by 2 minutes. Pat on my back!!! She already wants to know when and where the next one is........I'm sure I will never beat her again.

Post run, ready to do some stretching, have a nap, and a long hot bubble bath.

Chris and Logan came to cheer us on.

My friend Laura stayed with me the whole time.

Sandra coming up to the finish.

A visit to N-O-T-L

We went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Stuteley, and found this face painting going on at the Rv dealership, so Logan got a spiderweb painted on.......will be back later this week to post more pic's. It's late Sunday night, and I must go to sleep now.
