I completed my first 5K+ for the year yesterday. This one was 3.5 miles vs. the usual 3.1 miles. It has been 10 years since I last ran an official one. I can't beleive it has been that long ago. I have really missed running and have really enjoyed getting back into it. Wow, am I still nowhere where I want to be yet though; that is going to take a while. I finished in 33m 20s - my goal was under 30 min. I didn't anticipate the hills and sun would be so taxing! As you can see below, I was soaking wet when I finished.
On an unrelated note: Kim & I will be spending more time together on Sundays - We were called to team teach in primary (the CTR 5's) today and will start next week. I will keep my calling as Webelos Den Leader as well. We are excited because that is Brayden's class! It should be very rewarding and unpredictable - things that keep life exciting!

Sweet! Awesome job-you should run one with my mom, she had been running and loves it; though she hasn't completed a 5K recently. Keep it up!
Wow! I think 33 minutes is pretty good. Good job.
I guess it's all relative. I am comparing the time to what I have been running 3 miles in, 25-26 minutes. I am really close to 24 minutes with my goal of (eventually) breaking under 21. Thank you for the compliment!
