A Running Accomplishment

I ran a 5K last night.

My friend and I have successfully completed the Learn to Run clinic we started in May at the Running Room. Yesterday was the last clinic: a 2.5Km fun run with the option of repeating the loop to make it a 5K. We both did the repeat. Who would've thought after huffing & puffing that first week when we ran one minute and walked two, that we'd be running 30 minutes 10 weeks later! YAY for us!

WOO HOO!! Yup, after 10 weeks of hard work, training, some bad days, some great runs, we finally hit that milestone! I guess we'll have to get together to celebrate, with a well earned beer, of course :-)
