For....5k

For a new body.

For my wedding. 

For a happy heart. 

For a hot mama body. 

For my daughters wedding. 

Walk it or run it, you're stronger than you think.

Weight Watchers Walk !t challenge 2011.
Mom and Debby signed up to attend but Debby couldn't get out of work so I went with mom. I figured even though I'm out of shape I could still walk 5k no problem. Might of been easier if I had worn my tried and true shoes instead of deciding to break a new pair in. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

All the same, I had a really good time.

Teresa

There was a hoard of people from Teresa's tribe and I think we became honorary members. She walked up to us (we were NOT in her custom black and pink tribe shirt) and had us sign-in in her book and made mom hold the sign directing everyone from her 'tribe' to where she was. Pushy group, but very peppy and maybe that works for most people, just not for me. It did become fun people watching the mass of tribe members though.

Over 700 people

We finished before this but then
I got the idea to run back and take
a picture-but then the SD card was
full.... It was a fiasco, but I got a
picture close to our actual time.

Apparently you could custom design your shirts in advance, and it was a lot of fun to read what had been put on their shirts as we passed them
(some I remembered quoted at the top of this post). We finished it in 57 minutes, which was good for our first race and the crazy large crowd.

I did however, gave myself a blister from my shoe and mild shin splints (that will teach me to not stretch) but the important thing was that I had a great time with my mom.
