This could get addicting

I just finished my second 5K Sunday and I've already been online looking for the next one. I would really like to do about one a month. They're hard, but addicting!

Sunday's race was the Irish 5K. 

Dustin joined Kelly and I this time. I was very impressed with him. He hasn't run in a few months but was able to do the entire thing without stopping in close to 30 minutes. Kelly and I weren't quite as awesome, but I think we did well. 

This race was at Shelby Farms and was, in my opinion, harder than the first one I did. The trail had some very steep hills. But, I really enjoyed the challenge and the weather turned out absolutely perfect!
 Thanks Mom and Dad for coming to cheer us on and for taking the pics!

My First 5K

Saturday morning, bright and early, Jennifer, Kelly, and I headed downtown to do the Move It Memphis 5K. 

There were approximately 1,000 racers there. 

My only goal for that race was to finish. I know to some people doing a 5K is nothing, but we just started running, so to us, it was HUGE! 

I'm so proud of all three of us. We made it and were able to cross the finish line together. Our time wasn't anything spectacular, but it wasn't bad either.
Here's a video of the three of us crossing the finish line. It's kind of blurry, but you get the idea!

Now, I'm addicted and looking forward to my next race in 2 weeks! :)
