Yesterday was a long day for Jose and I. We each did 5ks (Jose for the first time). The day started out early with my 5k at eight and ended late with his at five. A fun fact about the early morning 5k was that hurricane sandy decided to make an appearance and my run was at the beach. So I have to say that this was a very memorable run to say the least. Also this was memorable because it was one of my coworkers first 5k's and she did awesome! Since I have done 5ks before I am going to let Jose tell you about his experience with his first 5k. (His was also more interested since it included zombies.)

So I survived my first 5k. It wasn't even the zombies that almost killed me it was the running, however as far as first 5k's go I think I did alright. My race was the rUNDEAD 5k with zombies trying to attack me in the Charlestown Landing County Park. I didn't really think about it beforehand but my first 5k turned out to be a trail run complete with obstacles. I was uninformed there would be hills and they were not even that big, but while running they seemed unconquerable. It was a nice run along the marsh, over some hay bales, and through a few old barns. This was a good first 5k because I now know I have a great deal of prepping before the rugged maniac run in March. 

I also want to give a huge thank you to Charity for making me run/go to the gym on days I didn't want to go. Thanks Charity I love you very much.

 Hope everyone has had a great weekend.
