I ran my first 5k of the year this weekend. Well, let me rephrase that, I had my first 5k (I mainly walked lol). It was soo much fun! I got to walk with some great friends and it was a nice start to all the 5ks I've already signed myself up for. Looking forward to getting better and having more fun :)

| You can't really tell, but that's me at the finish.. yay!! |

| I love how crazy everyone and everything looks under black light |
That looks like sooooo much fun!!! We did a mud run last year... never again lol. Hardest 3 1/2 miles and I mostly walked them!
ReplyDeleteI did my first mud run last year too. It was super hard and I walked most of it as well.. BUT I rather enjoyed it and it sorta made me feel like I had accomplished something lol. I think I'm doing one in April. Maybe I'll be able to at least go a little bit faster this year ;)
DeleteLooks like you had a blast! We did one before we moved from San Diego, Hubby ran and I sped walked with the stroller :)
ReplyDeleteI wanted to invite you to stop by our weekly Meet & Greet Blog Hop, it runs Friday night through the end of Monday! Come stop by and link up if you have some time this weekend :)

I just think 5ks like this one are just so fun. Its more about the experience rather than the speed. I can totally fit in with that since I'm no runner yet.
DeleteI just checked out the Blog Hop, looks fun! Think I will have to join because I'm always looking to meet new people! Thanks for the info :)
I could definitely get behind a glow-in-the-dark 5k! So fun! Congrats on completing your first race...it doesn't matter whether you walked or ran...you did it!
ReplyDeleteIt was like a big party (that at times made me feel a little old haha) and sooo much fun! It's my fourth 5k, but my first this year. But I feel like this is the year that I'm gonna run one and rock it out :)
DeleteThat looks like so much fun!!! I love 5K's. I have one on the 23rd and I am super excited about it!!
