I decided to train for a half marathon in mid November, so I might as well start with something small-- a 5K. A colleague told me about a local 5K supporting Alzheimer's research. The funny part was, I got in a picture in the local newsletter!! Thats me all the way on the right at the starting line.

A close up, yes i'm number 34--- not too many runners there!

And the best part was, I got 1st place in my age group! With a time of 30.29 minutes, one of my worst times in a 5k. I guess that's the good part about running in a small town.
