It has been a while...

I did not realize it had been so long.
But I did have my 5k yesterday. I was a little worried because I was only on week 4 of C25k. I ran it and I finished not with the greatest time but it was my first one and the main thing is that I finished. I had a time of 42.30.

I learned a couple of things. 1. I need running shoes. During the run I got horrible shin pain and I think this would not have happened if I had running shoes. So I am going to get some tomorrow. 2. Listen to people's advice. Everyone told me not to start out fast but one I started it did not feel fast and I was keeping up with everyone. I ran the entire first mile and it took everyone out of me so I had to walk the rest of the way.

I will have another 5k on the 12th of September. I am excited about this one. My sister-in-law and brother are going to be doing the 10k at the same place. My sister and mom are also thinking about doing the 5k. It would be nice.

I had so much fun at the 5k and really excited to do the next one. I am hoping by that time to finish the C25k and do the 5k under 40 minutes.
