So I started this whole thing with lots of hope and dreams but to motivate me more I entered a 5k and today I actually did it

It was hard and I was slow (I’m blaming the howling gale) but it was fun running with my triathlete son with his motivational quips. 😀

Feeling so pleased and so glad I started C25k
