Finished my first 5 K this morning!

Holy mother #*&^#&! lol. It was a lot harder than i expected! It was through a winery and a lot of sand, dirt and grass. The first half was the hardest, the sand was kicking up and I had a hard time breathing & also my foot at one point got caught in a vine and I almost tripped, lol. Once I got on the pavement it was much better. But I finished! It felt incredible and was so much fun!!! Especially the wine tasting after. Not my greatest time either, 39.15, but I'll take it especially considering that i was running in sand, lol. Hopefully, the next one I'll improve, which is 2 weeks and is a road course.

Just wanted to share and thank everyone for their advice and encouragement! :)
