My First 5K :)


I decided for my first 5K I would pick one that I could walk and that there was no time limit on so my goal could just be to finish :) I picked one a little North of Indy in the middle of nowhere. It was called the Llama Walk and was a fundraiser for the local Elementary School. My friend Lindsay came along for the walk and I am not sure I could have finished without her cheering me on by my side.


I've been walking a lot at the gym. A few times a week, but have only walked outside once since I started. It's a lot different. Plus the weather decided to get cold and the wind picked up. We were icicles by the end!


Long story short...I finished my 3.2 miles/5 Kilometers :)
