Running my 1st 5K race!

[ManOfWord]

Update:

Just finished! Didn't set a new PR, but still ran a 23:33 5K. Didn't even place! I got smoked by some really fast guys in the 55-59 age group. The 1st place in that group turned a time of just over 20 min I think.

Really bummed I didn't place, but really happy with my time although I would really liked to have turned a 22:00. There were a total of 243 runners and I placed 63rd overall. Again, not bad for an old man! LOL

We had at least 5 folks from NLC who ran.

I've dropped 30lbs since October with nothing but a change in diet. Just started running this May. I'm just about ready for the REAL speedos!! LOL
