Did my first 5K in 45 minutes today...Not bad for a couch potato! This was my New Years resolution and it's done!!! Thanks to all who INSPIRE ME EVERYDAY on this site! LOVE YA!!!!!! Also want to say IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN DO IT TOOOOO!

Special shout out to my sleeve sister Michelle who stuck it out in the pouring rain! WE DID IT GIRL!!!!

You are brave girl! The wind here is horrible, Great job on your first 5k!

I will be running a 5k obstacle course in December. A while off but I already have an issue with my right knee, so I want to get as much weight off before I start the actual running part. It is a ZOMBIE 5k!!!

I added the links below, if anyone want to join me that would be awesome, and they are going to be in several areas this year.

That is awesome!! Running a 5K is one of my goals. I just started the Couch to 5k program (haven't run since high school) and I'm hoping to run my first 5K in the spring. You have inspired me more...Way to Go!!!

I still can't believe you guys did that in the pouring rain!!! WOW! I sat down there with Michelle and debated and decided not to get drenched and headed to the gym instead. You two are our HEROES! Let's plan another one for a sunny day and I'm SO there! Or let's do the trail. . .
