I rarely do this folks. I am not one to purposely draw attention to myself but instead of posting the same thing a few times over in the different check-ins, I figured I'd post it one time here for anyone who interested!

I created a small album in my picture trail with the race pics!

I finished (unofficially) in 32.01 minutes which, if I am calculating it correctly is an average pace time of about 10:30 which is very good for me! I am very happy with my time...I didn't think I'd do that well!!!:)

I chose not to wear my garmin because I thought it would do me more harm than good as I'd constantly be looking at it...

It was a great experience! I'm so glad that I did it and look forward to doing it again!

Thanks for all of the support and motivation leading up to this! It really helped me not to get too nervous!:+
 
YAYAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WENDY!!!!!!! You go you sekcy cheetah!!! Great job:):)

WOO HOO, Wendy! Way to go!! Cracked up at your last caption about your hubby screwing up the shot. :) You looked really strong - and smiling! I thought was funny, too. (I think I always look like I'm in pain.) Anyway, congrats on your 1st 5K!!
 
STINKY HIGH FIVE, WENDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It has been really fun to see your journey here on the boards as you approach your first official 5k. I'm so proud of you!!!!! Way to push your envelope. Wahoo!!!!!!

It was great that Joey could participate as well as your mom. Such support all around! (And the DHs do get better at the photo taking!)

WAHOO!!!!! :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
 
Thanks gals! I really appreciate it! :)

I must say that with out the inspiration, motivation and support of folks on this board, I don't think I would have started running AT ALL much less had the gumption to enter a race! I don't know what I'd do with out y'all!

I must say a SPECIAL thanks to my CHEETAHS! They are a group of AWESOME women and I hope I will get a chance to meet each and every one of them one day!:)

(((HUGS)))to all!:*
 
^5 WENDY!!!!

I'm proud of you girl. I too wondered how the heck you smiled running your first race, but then I remembered "oh yeah, it's Wendy".:)

I think it's cool Joey and you shared your first races today. And thanks for sharing the great pix.
