I wanted to have a fun, new, and healthy date activity to do with Boo. I wouldn't call it cheap... but it was for a good cause. We don't go out much so I have justified it to myself (& pookiebear).
Here are the before pics-
We walked.
I got to "set the pace" since I am the less athletic of us. I walk slow, I walk slower up hills, but I did finish. I wanted to do it in under an hour. I managed to, just by the hair of my chinny chin chin.
Here are the after shots-
I worked myself into a pink faced mess ;)
Boo claimed he'd probably just look more awake, lol. Turns out, I was the very first person to pre-register for this 5k, so I got tag #1! Poor boo got #2, I told him he was my Will Ryker =( lol
We also got teased a couple times about being 1 & 2 and being near last (hahaha!).
I was pretty uncomfortable being there with all the fit people. I am still in the hide from the world obese stage. I hope that passes someday, I would really like to be apart of it more.We hung around to cheer on the people who won, and see who got the door prizes.
My attempts at blending in were completely foiled when they called my number for the 5th prize!
I think our first 5k was pretty awesome. I am hoping to do another one this year and see if I can beat my time:
