I ran my first ever 5k today. Actually it was my first race ever. I've never been a runner but a few months ago I decided I would like to start running and possibly run a race some day. Well, today was that day. What a blast! My sweet husband, daughter and my wonderful mom were all there to cheer me on and support me. God gave me the endurance and strength to finish strong. Finishing time: 25:32. Official finishing time: 25:42 (It took 10 seconds to get across the Start line)
"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Philippians 4:13

You go girl, I've always wanted to be a runner and run a 5 or 8K! Really good time too.
Great job! I'm impressed! It's only walking for me. I love that you documented the day with a photo showing your time on your watch with your number and shoes too.
Congratulations! I'm running my second ever tomorrow...my time will be significantly longer, but it is still a feeling of accomplishment! Good for you!
Congratulations!! What an amazing feeling! And you ran pretty fast, too. I'm contemplating a 5k next weekend, but can't seem to bring myself to register. It's been a looooooong time for me.
Good for you! I'm impressed.
Yes, I was there watching my baby girl cross the finish line with tears in my eyes. Good job, Honey Bunny. All glory to the Lord.
Congrats! What an accomplishment!
Congratulations! That's a great finishing time! I will be running my first 5K of this year on May 21. (I ran in 4 races last year).
And that is my favorite verse! I repeat it all the time while I am running. :)
Way to go.
I caught up with this one at the 365 page on facebook and wanted to tell you how much I like it. And after reading your post, I like it even more.
Congrats! A great accomplishment!
Running a 5k is definitely on my list of want to dos! Way to go. That's an awesome time too!
Awesome job!
Good for you! You look like you are in great shape too! I like the creative second shot here as well.
Congratulations! That's a big accomplishment. Rest up tomorrow.
Nevertheless, Happy Mother's day !
You rock girl! I'm so impressed! I can hardly run to the kitchen fast enough to get a bowl of ice cream let alone run a 5k! Congrats on your time too, I bet you're walking on air tonight, either that or totally worn out and fast asleep!
Congratulations on completing your first 5k, Misty!
congratulations, I admire anyone who can run like this. I ride my bike and/or walk miles but I wouldn't even run out to the mailbox.
Congrats! I wish my first 5K was as fast! I like the shoe/watch composition. Cool idea.
I'm in awe...congrats!
Good for you. What a great accomplishment!

Congratulations! It isn't an easy task to train when you have a young one to look after.
