Angie's first 5k!

Today was my first 5k run. I have been preparing for this for about 9 weeks now and this was the first of two that I am registered for. It was harder than I thought it would be. There were times when I was not sure I was going to make it, but thanks to a really nice friend and neighbor, Anjanette and the people waiting for us at the finish line (thanks John, Madison, Kaeda and Dawson) I did finish and in faster time than I ever imagined, 33 minutes! Woo hoo!!! It felt great and crossing that finish line was really satisfying. My next one is in September. I am glad it's not tomorrow.

Me and AJ pre-race...waiting in line for the little girl's room!Coming in for the big finish!!!
Another finishing line photo! I was so happy to see the end.

YAY! WE DID IT!!!!

It was hard work and I am glad I did it. Shows me how far I have come and how far I need to go.
