Flight line Dash 5K…

I did my first 5K for 2013.  My goal is 12. When I left the house at 7am the temperature was 38 degree.  What was I thinking?  Got to the base and got our package and noticed there was frost on the ground.  I was still at this point questioning my sanity.  Finally, at a little after8am, we crossed the start line for a beautiful morning walk on the base.  So glad I got out of my warm bed and did it.  Now, which one to do for February?  Research to be done tomorrow, today I just enjoy the accomplishment.

It's cold, but I am ready for my first 5K of 2013.  Loving the feeling of fulfilling a goal!

Trying to walk 3 days next week…Watch for my progress!

Day 1

January 2, 2013

Got the bright idea that running could be the thing I want to try this year…Figure I better start walking consistently this month first…30 minutes at least 3 times a week…Love being outside, especially in San Diego…

Talked to a friend about running a while back and …She is actually did her first marathon last January.  Said the training wasn’t horrible but she did say that half marathons will be what she will be going back too…but she will be able to check the full off of her bucket list.

I on the other hand am just looking to run 5K’s…seem reasonable, and doable

New to this whole running thing, figured I would give it a try…Did my first 30 minute walk this morning and found a 5K to sign up for next weekend…Here we go!
