I did it. I just signed up for my first 5k race. I think my heart is actually beating faster just thinking about it.
When is the race?
3 weeks today.
Am I insane?
Just maybe!! I can go the full 5k (I can go further actually!) but I combine jogging with walking still. Hopefully by race day I'll have no problems running the full 5. We'll see.
Pictures and stuff coming tomorrow. Or the next day. ;)

About Me
- Holly E. G.
- I'm 26 years old and lucky enough to be married to my best friend in the world, Matthew. I've been blessed beyond my wildest hopes with my little miracle, Elijah, and I love being a stay-at-home mom. When I have free time, I love reading, playing the piano, and spending quality time with my family and friends. All in all, I'm a pretty average girl who has her faults. I don't deal well with change - I like it in theory, but in practice I go to pieces. I'm rather competitive, stubborn and sometimes too prideful. It's something I'm working on. If I could be anything in the world I'd be kind, and I wish it came more naturally. I'm working on that too. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ, and I love his gospel. I know that some day I will be able to live with him and my Heavenly Father again, and I know that my family will be together forever. I'm so grateful for the hope and joy this brings to my life.

GOOD for YOU!!! You're a SUPERSTAR!!
I was supposed to run the Moon in June on Saturday but I was siiiiiiiiiick. :( Maybe I'll meet you at the PeachBud.... :)
Sad about the Moon in June! I'd love to do a night race like that. Maybe next year. YES come for the Peachbud, though! You'll whoop my butt like nothing else, but that's nothing new. When I jogged the other day I did 5k in 42m and 30s, but I'm determined to make it better. And it was on a treadmill which I find harder than jogging outdoors. Anyway, I'm rambling now. EXCITED!
Hey just found your blog via an old comment when I was searching for a recipe and wala, here I am!
5K's are super fun, and there are lots of people who walk a little bit ( I did in my last 5K!) Hope that you enjoy it, you'll probably get addicted! :)
Jewls - thanks for the encouragement! I'm really looking forward to it, although I'm nervous as heck! At this point I can only DREAM of doing 5k in 31 minutes like you did (walking included? Holy moley!) I'll get there someday, if I can just keep at it this time!
