I set a goal for my self several months ago that I would run the 5k race on Memorial Day. 5k is equal to 3.1 miles. I have been "training" as it were as much as I could on my treadmill at home. In the last several weeks had finally worked up to 3 miles. My friend Krista I also talked into doing it with me. She didn't have as much time to get ready for it. She also works part time which takes up her "training time. But she did and awesome job. I came it at 45:20. There were over 1600 runners and I came in Fourteen hundred seventy something. It was in downtown Huntsville. There were people lined up cheering you on the whole way. Even though they didn't know you they looked right at you and cheered you on. The whole experience was awesome. I think I'm hooked. I'm already trying to figure out when I can do another one. Krista is also willing to continue getting in shape with me. That is sooo helpful to have a partner. Anyway, I had a wonderful time and thought I'd put some pictures of the race on here.
