Brain Power 5k? Sure, why not!
3.5 weeks later...
I have to say if it were not for the following events, I don't think this accomplishment would have not happened so soon.
1) Resisting the pull of water at the large wave pool at Schlitterbahn so Darlisa & I could experience as many big waves as possible.
2) Workout with Timothy Parravano at Kelly Personal Fitness
3) Interval training with Dawn Davies & Brian Lippincott
4) Rollerskating on quads
Brian coached me through the 5k on Sunday. I didn't learn until later that Dawn was in the stands cheering us on at the start of the race!
We completed the 5k in 40 min.
I did manage to start off with running past the half mile mark so that was good.
My ultimate goal is to finish a 5k in 25 min. I did want a lower time at this event but I only had a flash of disappointment.
Why?
Because, I completed a 5k! I didn't quit! Best of all, I did it with my husband!
