WOW that was tough but i did it

I ran my first 5K this morning. I ran it in 35.34mins. My goal was to just RUN the whole thing and I DID IT. I started running about 2 months ago. I couldn't run for 3 mins straight. As of yesterday the farthest I had ran was 2.5miles. I can't believe I did 3.1. It was so hard. Mostly because I have bad allergies and can't breathe well while outside but I stuck with it and kept going (at a very slow pace obviously) I actually had tears in my eyes when I crossed the finish line. I have never stuck with anything. Unfortunetly I am not losing any weight but I feel better physically and I know the weight will come off at some point. So I just wanted to share my excitement.

Re: WOW that was tough but i did it

Congratulations!! I ran a 5k this morning and came in first place for my age group. I started running in February and never thought I'd be able to run 3.1 miles straight.

I totally understand the love/hate part of it all!

Way to go!

I had a great experience. For me, I was very happy with my time (40 minutes). I had set a goal of 45 minutes. Overall I'm feeling good! I tried to run tonight at the gym, but don't think my muscles have yet recovered! My town is doing a 5k in July which I'm considering.
