ok, the 5K race is over....now what?

Since I never.....EVER.....thought I would try, let alone, enjoy running....My goal to run a 5K event is now over..... What do I do now??? Please don't suggest a 10K....I am pretty sure my max will remain a 5K!!!!

Ps: I met and exceed my time goal!!! AND I ran all the hills!!!!

then you sign up for another one. And maybe have a 10k goal for next year?

Well, I WAS invited to join the New Year's Eve 5K...... Might have to try that one and better my time!!!

That is fantastic. I hope you continue to enjoy running. I am so envious of all the runners on here.

first off.. CONGRATS on that fantastic accomplishment!!

 

Second.. what you can do is wait for me to have my surgery and then, drag my ass around until I can accomplish this as well  bahaha lol kidding :P

 

Naw, never say never when it comes to 10k... whats the harm in trying?- you got this!

I will take you up on the running suggestion!!! I seem to always run alone...Even in the race....I was never in a group.... Maybe a running partner will help me pick up my pace!!!

I was a little discouraged when all the 10k racers that only started 5 minutes ahead of me looped me and finished well before I could even see the finish line?!?!  DAMN!!! lol...But they were all total athletes! 0% body fat!!!

Never worry about the other runners. You just need to run your own race. I ran my whole marathon by myself. It would have been nice to have someone but there wasn't and so you just have to believe in yourself and do it. Think about the 10 next year. Do a 10 and one. You could do it. 

I second that! Make the New Year's Resolution Run your next 5k and keep going!!! Do a marathon with me in the fall

BAHAHAHA!!! You are too funny Kelly!! ME? a marathon?!? um...no but maybe...I could try a 10k...... maybe.....  lol

Thank you and congratulations on your marathon this past weekend!!! WTG!!!
