My first 5k

Friday, October 24, 2008
So last night. GREAT night! Jimmy, Dillon and I met up with my BFF Emily and her hubby Freddy for Ft Worth's "Friends of the River" 5k. at Trinity Park.

As you know, Emily and I have been training for close to 2 months now getting ready for February's 13.1 mile half Marathon! I haven't gotten to the 13 miles yet. That's like me running from my house all the way to Lake Worth... or Hulen Mall. Seriously.

So the "Friends of the River" was so awesome... we have all decided to do it again next year! There was nearly 800 people who ran last night. I was (unfortunately) in 437th place. But hubby (Jimmy) was an unbelievable 98th place! Top 100! He ran about a 7 minute mile. Me? 11.5 minute mile.

There was FREE food after the race! Sooo many restaurants came out to root for us! There was Chili's, Mellow Mushroom, Pei Wei, Smoothie King, Chadra, Pasties, free beer (but I don't drink) and many many MANY more!!! Too bad only TWO of the places had vegan stuff! Oh well, I filled up on Smoothie King! lol

Everyone had a blast!!! This deserves a few extra exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!
