My first 5k

After sitting around on my behind all winter and not exercising, I did a 5k in the rain.  I know some people were thinking that I ran a 5k, but let’s be serious now and think about that.  I walked a 5k and actually wasn’t the last person to finish.  Emily, the manager of our Rigby office does a 10k/5k every year to raise money for different causes.  This year our office told us if we wanted to do it they would pay our entry fee and I am not going to lie, I felt a little pressure to do it.  There were a few of us from our office that signed up and I was pretty proud of myself for actually finishing.  I had SERIOUS anxiety the day before the race, I didn’t eat and if you ask my family I wasn’t much fun to live with that day.  It was so out of my comfort zone, but, I finished, rain and all.  My cute friend Lori from work stuck by my side the whole time and we finished at exactly the same time.  I am supposed to do another one in June, so I am thinking I should get out a little more since this one is a lot more uphill that the other one.
