So while i have run 5k in distance, i haven't ran in an actual event.
On New Year's Eve i rang in the New Year running my very first actual 5k event, with a number and all.. It felt SO good, i was so proud of myself.
The conditions weren't the best since we were dumped with much snow days before, and so we weren't able to give it our all since we had to be safe as well.

But finishing, despite the slippery conditions, the intense cold & windchill and my making excuses for two days prior why i should *not* do it - i was SO proud of myself. And since i hadn't run since about September, because of starting school it was a wonderful accomplishment and to know i still can.

Great way to begin the New Year - it's been a super uphill climb since then!
Yesssssssssss! Also loving that the weather has been ridiculously mild here and our snow has been melting down so much that we see pavement.. Once the black ice is gone, my plan is to get outside running because the dreadmill makes me crazy. i love fresh air!
