My first 5K

I did it! I ran my first official 5K. The Irish Jig in East Grand Rapids. Worst day all month weather wise... I thought it might turn out kinda warm since it was 60 degrees on Friday, but on Saturday when I woke up, there was almost an inch of snow on the ground and the snow showed no signs of letting up. It was coming down pretty good the whole race, and my fingers were frozen. My goal was 28:30, but I beat that by a minute. 27:32 was my official chip time! Most likely because I had motivation since I was running with Kim for most of the race. I was pretty proud of myself! ...and by late afternoon we had three inches of snow on the ground. Sunday it all melted...haha. of course.
