My First 5k Race!

Getting my "trophy" from Santa

On Saturday I ran in my first 5K race - Tom's 7th Annual 5K Reindeer Race.

Pat does the race every year - not always running - but he does participate. When he told me about it, I thought it would be a fun thing to try.

The day of the race was SOOO cold! I was freezing and have never ran in such cold weather before, so I was a little nervous.

I ended up getting 2nd Place in the Female 20-35 Age Group! Who would have guessed that! I also had a great time doing it and it is for a very good cause, so I think I will go back next year!

The kids LOVED cheering me on and eating the donuts afterwards.
