I ran my first 5k today... i didn't do as bad as i thought i would... 00:25:44 time 8:17/mile pace... i had a really good time... this is something i definitely want to do again... any other people here do these things?
I'm far too sedentary to do a 5k, but my wife does them all the time. She did 33 over the last year, as well as the Erie 1/2 marathon. I'll tell you what, I was starting to get bored with having to go to a 5k EVERY freaking weekend, but once I got the MINI, I actually look forward to driving her there, the crowd always parts and points as we drive to our parking spot. Not that I like showing it off or anything
Also, since most of them are charity, her entry fees generate literally hundreds of dollars in write-offs every year.
Beware, the 5k's become almost as addicting as Mini's. First 5k, the 10k, could marathons be too far away. 5k's are the perfect distance, fun and quick. Keep running and motoring.
Cool. I'll probably hit the 5k mile mark in my MINI tomorrow!
