My First 5K



I participated in my first 5K last Thursday. It was a BLAST! I really want to work my way up to actually running the whole thing. I had 6 close college friends with me and we all walked and talked and caught up during the race!

At the finish line there was a big party in Reverchon Park with 50+ restaurants giving away free food, samples, coupons, drinks, etc. There was live music and free beer..so basically we cancelled out the great workout we just had but it was a blast.

All the proceeds went to support the Katy Trail. This is a running, biking, skating trail that runs from Victory Park (where I live) to SMU's campus. It is a great asset to Dallas so we were happy to support!

I am so proud of David- he ran the whole thing (with one little walking break after the big hill). Way to go Babe!

Bill and Caroline also did some good running! I will be with you next time :)
