Yep. I did it! A month after graduating. Not pretty, definitely slow, but I did my first 5K and am pleased and proud in equal measures. The time? Don't ask. Who cares? Not me - I RAN 5K! So glad I found this forum - couldn't have done it without you all in my head over the last few weeks. Thank you!
