My First 5k

So back in January I got this wild idea to run a 5k...along with joining Weight Watchers. So I knew I needed a training buddy and immediately thought of Kristi. So we started training 4 months ago to a run a 5k this fall but got to a goal a whole lot faster than expected. We ran our first 5k on Saturday with Weight Watchers and words can't express how good it felt to finish. A big thanks to my family and friends for supporting us....next up...a 10k!!!

Almost at the finish line

Maddie running the last bit with us

She's awesome! Couldn't have done it without her!
