My First 5k!

I finally did a 5K! The last time I attempted to do one Hurricane Irene touched down so it was canceled. On May 13th I did the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Philadelphia. My friend's step mother is a survivor so a few of us went to join my friend in showing support. I walked the whole thing in about 45 minutes. That may or may not seem like a big deal but the fact that I can now do 3 miles in under an hour is progress. I'm looking forward to my next one in June.

A view on the way to the 5k...we had to park really far. 

Who doesn't love baby geese?

I love Philly. 

We had cheerleaders! I felt special. 

The scenery definitely helped the time to pass. 

This is my official work out hat. It's comfy and dare I say,  stylish. 

I was so happy to pass this on the way home. Gotta visit this museum again. 

The walk to my friend's car was another mile...at least! 

Walk it out....

Real women walk! 

This was my jam when it came out..don't judge me. 

Yesterday I walked a total of 6 miles. Today I walked 3.5 miles...in 45 minutes! I do get some side eyes from people at times, but I walk when I have a destination to get to-and I walk like I've got somewhere to go. 

Michele knows how to do a good side eye.
