Great job!!! I love the feeling of finishing a race. I just started running back in January, and I just love it...even though I am in my 40's...it is never too late.

Way to go and your husband. Now you have a PR and something to shoot for. I always try to beat my last PR. I don't race against anybody else just myself. After I ran my first 5k the bug had set in and I wanted to do more.

Yeah for you. I also did Turkey Trot in DE along with another sparkmember. Hopefully, you'll love it so much (like I did) that there will be many more to come.

I signed up for the turkey trot on thanksgiving! :) So proud of myself. NEVER done a 5k before...EVER! I am on week 4 of C25K training...struggling with it actually. My goal is to run what I can...walk some..then run some more :) I hope the crowd will motivate me to keep going!
Well just sharing! My longterm goal when I read the spark was to do a 5k...SO YAY!

You will do great! Just remember to do it at your own speed, it isn't a race per say.

That is so awesome and inspiring. You are really on a roll and an amazing person to watch the progress of. Good luck with the Turkey trot. Good strategy about the combo of walking/running. Not only will the crowd be cheering you, but you'll probably be motivated by seeing all the various people around you and with you. Keep us posted on how it goes. I'll be with you in spirit.
