Mission Accomplished! I ran the Color Me Rad 5K in 27 minutes and 10 seconds...and I had a blast doing it! I'm really glad I chose this run to be my first ever race because it was so fun and laid back. I only had myself to compete with and I never felt embarrassed or stressed out that I wasn't going to make my time. I could write about how much fun I had but I think when talking about a race like the Color Run, you kind of have to be there to get anything out of it, so instead of telling how much fun I had, I thought I'd just show you instead...

Now that the race is over I am even more determined than ever to run a 10K and maybe even a half marathon. I've learned to love running (finally) and can't wait to keep training. That being said I'd realized I had neglected my regular workout routine while I was training for the 5K so I decided to get back at it today. Not going to lie, it was a bit rough. I did a kickboxing video and finished up with Ab Ripper X. I actually found the kickboxing to be easier (my cardio and endurance has increased dramatically since I've started running!) but I couldn't even keep up with Ab Ripper. I really need to focus on my upper body and my core so maybe that will be my next project..
To health and happiness!
