I ran my first 5k this weekend! The city of Cardiff decided to honor the infamous Cardiff Kook with an annual 5k and 10k race along the coast. It was the first annual race so I decided to make it my first 5k. I was definitely a little bit apprehensive, anyone who knows me knows I am NOT a runner. But, I definitely ran more than I walked and actually did a better time than I had originally anticipated.
It helped that I had a running buddy and I made a mix of pump up songs timed out to when I thought I might need some extra pep. (I crossed the finish line to Journey's "Don't Stop Believin').
