Karen's First Race

Just finished my first 5K race this morning and came in 1st in my age category - and yes...there were more than one in the category! I think there were 3, but hey, I'm glad I finished. I even had a nice sprint at the end which I had wanted to do but wasn't sure if I could do it. I don't know the time yet but I'll post it when it gets online. They didn't have any results listed as of yet. It was pretty exciting and fun to be part of a group of over 500 runners. There was a smaller 5K walk and a 1 mile fun run also going on for a total of over 700 runners. It was pretty amazing. Now I"m all excited about doing my next one in November. There is one right here in Norco on Nov 14 that starts at RCC and goes up and around the Lake Norconian and back to RCC. It is sponsored by the Lake Norconian Foundation and the Norco Kiwanis Club. Maybe some of you would want to join me :) That would be so fun. Of course, I probably couldn't keep up with any of you but it would still be fun. Maybe a month from now I'll be faster. I'm trying to post a couple of pictures to go with this, but I can't find the place to do it. I'll just post this and then do the pictures later.
