I ran a 5K today!
Ready to run!

I've never been a runner, and now - after being in BootcampSF since late August of '07 - I am! The girl next to me above is my awesome trainer, Gwen, who ran with me today. She's so supportive!
It was pretty cold & drisley - but really cool to be a part of it. There were 9000 people out there! Holy moly! I was really trippin' as we were loading on to the bus that took us to the start... all of these people really thought it was a good idea to get up at the crack of dawn (my alarm went off at 5:30am!) and RUN in the RAIN!? Weird!
But I'm really proud of myself for doing it. Mind you, a 5K is not that far at all, and thankfully pretty easy for me to do now - yay! So today was more about the doing it than anything. I feel really fortunate to actually have the able body (thank you feet, knees & lungs!) to run and am looking forward to getting faster and going further!
