As most of you know I don't have a very good back. At the begining of the year I set a goal to get my back in shape because that is the only way I don't have back pain. Something that I haven't been able to do consistently since I hurt my back was run. I would run and then be in pain for 3-4 days after. I set a goal to run in a 5K the begining of May. Well I did it!
crossing the finish line. Best time ever! 33 minutes 34 seconds
My Mom ran with me she was nice enough to hold back (yes my Mom is a super runner)my Mom finished in 31 minutes. She would have done better than that if she wasn't waiting on me.
My support team aren't they so dang cute!
I know a 5K isn't much but for me it was. It always feels good to accomplish a goal you've set. I am proud to say that my back wasn't sore even a little bit and mostly that is what I am proud of.

That's so awesome! It's it just great after you finish your first race? I was addicted after the first race I did. We'll have to run one together, there's like 7 coming up! :)
i'm really interested in running one! i've never liked running but have also thought the same thing for my back. how'd you prepare for it? and how'd you do it while being with boston all day?
I'LL DO IT WITH YOU!! Do i have to register for it though? That gives me 6 weeks to train :) Did you run everyday then? and di dyou run just 5 miles everyday or what?
