Tonight I ran my first race all the way, without stopping! I was a 5k, which may not seem like a lot to some of you but it was for me. I have never ran a 5k, running the whole time, without pausing or stopping once! Well that is until tonight! I was so proud of myself, even though I would have liked to have gone faster. My time was 38:02. I ran with my support group Maryann and Kourtney. They were so encouraging and without them I probably would have gone a lot slower. I kept a steady pace the whole time and felt really good afterwards. I want to run more races and improve my time! It gets me excited to have something that makes you feel so accomplished after you're finished! I was so nervous to run it. :) I wanted to do well and feel like I ran my hardest. It was hard because so many people kept passing me at the beginning and it just made me feel so much slower. I'm glad I finished though and can say I've now actually ran an entire 5k! Next time will be so much faster though! I'm excited!
