My FIRST 5k!! Complete.
I did not run the whole thing, I alternated jogging and walking, but I've learned a few things:
1) Do not start off running to Livin La Vida Loca. It's much to fast and I was out of breath too quickly!
2) Do not drink the orange gatorade. I put it in my mouth and the sweetness was so gross I had to spit it out.
3) Sun is hot ..hope for a cloudy day!
They haven't posted official times, but I know it was under 43 minutes and I was NOT the last to finish!
I still have 2 weeks left in my C25K training, but I think I did need the motivation. I'm very proud of myself. And now I have a number to improve from. I'm quite pleased.
Happy Sunday!

I haven't caught up completely, but I had to read this post and shoot over some praise. It's hard work and you deserve a big pat on the back. You'll only get faster now. :)
