EXTREME FUSION 5K - I DID IT!!!!!

Becky, our trainer organized a 5K for our team and anyone else who wanted to run it.  She had the 26.2 running store briing their finish line blow up and their timing equipment.  The newspaper was there as well



Yes. this picture was in the Daily Herald.

All too soon, it was time to start.  Becky had someone there to run with each of us on the team.  Someone to encourage us and keep us going, to make sure we didn't get lost.  My someone was Jason, the other trainer of our team.  There were even some other people from our ward who showed up to run



And we are off


I jogged as long as I felt like I could then I would walk for a few minutes, then jog, then walk.  It was HARD - expecially when we had to go up the hill.   Once we got to the top we got a bit of a rest as it was flat for a few blocks, then back down hill to the finish line.




I DID IT!!

I actually jogged/walked a 5K.  It was hard work, but so worth it.  I am proud of my time



Sorry I can't make it be the right way to read it easier.  But my time was 44:32.  I am going to keep at this, and improve my time.  I want to be able to jog the whole 5k. 


IT WAS SO WORTH IT!

Thanks Rachael for coming to cheer me on.
