So I am turning 30 in 11 days. I know I am ONLY turning 30, however, leaving my 20’s behind seems a little scary. Earlier this year I vowed to myself I wanted to achieve a few things before the big 3-0. One thing was to step up my fitness game. Enter my goal: Run in an organized race by November. Well folks I can check that off the list! I ran in my first 5K race this weekend.
The run took place in Golden Gate Park on Halloween morning. Here is a lake in the park. Eerie right?!?
Since the race was on Halloween it was encouraged that you run in costume. I dressed as a black cat and my fiance was Waldo.
The race started and we got off to a great start. Unfortunately, around 1.6 miles I started loosing steam. My fiance thankfully had some encouraging words and we finished in 30:04!
Boy did that finish line look glorious! I have to say I feel super proud and accomplished. Maybe I can train for bigger races…half marathon maybe? (haha)
Go for it! If you didn’t live across the country, we could do it together!
