Well I did it!!!!!!!!
I walked my first ever 5k. A 5k is 3.1 miles. I did it in 49 minutes and 53 seconds. This is 20 minutes off my time when I first did it in “training” about 4 or 5 weeks ago. I do not feel it as much as I thought I would. I thought my legs were gonna be dead but they are not!
I am very proud of myself J
I walked with Kim and Hannah. Brett was at first in front of me walking with a friend and then we pasted them at the half way point. All the Jonases did it too. The 3 littles did the kids ¼ mile run and then everyone else did the 5k. Colter placed in his age group. He did it in 21 mins 49 secs. He ran!!!!
Not sure the details of the 1st mile but the 2nd mile we were going at about 4 mph as our pace. I think the 2nd mile we did in 16mins. At the end Kim pushed me so I would beat my time. She kept an eye on my throughout the walk to make sure I was doing okay. She kept an eye on my face redness and my breathing. My face always gets red so that’s that. My breathing was not too bad only when we turned and we were walking into the wind it was hard to breathe. My nose kept running though and that was really annoying but that is common and a really good thing. She also had me using my arms to go faster and I kept thinking I was going to hit myself in the face. She gave me visuals to where we are gonna power walk to and then slow down a little then power walk…. Towards the end it seemed the power walking times got longer haha…
The money was for a Christian School that could not get any churches in the area to support them so they have to support themselves.
