5K race!!!

I did my very first 5k race on Saturday! Yipee :) Didn't run all the way but i did for the most part. Was timing myself but i clicked on my stop watch unknowingly during tha race and that messed up the plan. I know I was at 12mins after the first mile and based on my wrist watch I think I did about 35 mins (between 35 nd 40) which is good for the first time. Was proud of myself :) My whole body was hurting seriously by Saturday evening and also on Sunday and Monday! The aches and pains have gone and I have decided I'll be jogging on alternate days. I powerwalk everyday except Sundays for an hour and have being doing that for the past 6 weeks. So its time to step it up!
I have never liked jogging, in fact i dare to say i hate it. But i can do all things to Christ who strenghtens me. I will never say never.
Will write about my progress on the jogging :) Have a wonderful week and remember that God has plans for us, plans of good and not of evil and He will bring us to the place he has prepared for us, the good, glorious, expected end in all spheres of our lives in Jesus name!

Congratulations!! 5Km!! WOW! I'm aspiring for my first 5KM in July - 21st to be precise. Thats if I dont chicken out before then. Have you had previous funning experience? Or you just started running 5km based on all the powerwalking you've been doing? Fill me in quickly please. I'm so, so curious! LOL!!

Oh girl, I'm going to weigh myself this weekend unfailingly. Your ticker is moving so steadily!
