Noah's First 5K--January 26th







Noah and I ran a 5K yesterday to celebrate his 7 weeks. :) A friend who was in labor at the same time I was owns a gym and sponsored a 5K yesterday. She gave me a weeks notice to get my running shoes out and didn't give me the option of not doing it. It was great motivation and I had a ton of fun. The race was really relaxed--we walked to the starting line and she said GO! and off we went. I ran the whole thing with a woman named Babs who was going at the same pace I was. Despite my heavy breathing up the loooooooong hill we still managed to carry on a conversation about our favorite books. It was somewhat surreal. Noah slept the entire way, but I'd like to think he would have enjoyed the race had he been awake. :)
