Congrats! How about increasing your speed so you finish the 5km in 10% less time (or just fill in the numbers/speed to what you want to achieve)? And bask in the glow of your rosy cheeks?

Congrats on your first 5 km - i did my first one on Oct 5th , I thought i was done at 5 km but 10 days later i actuallly ran 10 KM , so i would suggest bettering your times in a couple fo 5 km until the spring where im betting you will easily complete a 10 KM - Keep smiling - you have completed a fantastic thing

Yay nice eyes! Signed up for the Resolution Run on NYE. I am just one week short of finishing the Learn to Run at the Westboro Running Room. Our goal race is the mission possible run. I'll try it but not sure if I will be ready.

They have free runs on Wednesday at 6:30 and Sundays to 8:30. You can always come to one of them.

Congrats you go girl. And amazing...

A 10k or marathon never??? Did you think this time last year your would be running a 5k? No so try, try, try...You already surpassed me in the 5 k department (my stupid dumb knee is going to take awhile..) I can now just run 15 minutes before I start hurting...I guess it is better than before when I couldn't even run...

But try for a 10 km you already come this far....
