5K and a lot of snow


Today I ran my first 5k for child abuse and boy was it an adventure!! As you can see from the pictures the weather did not cooperate. I was hoping all the way to Wellsville that they would cancel but as we arrived of course they did not. It was a little chilly starting out but as I got going it was not so bad. It was a great run and thanks to the lady in the red she was my running buddy and did not even know it. I thought to myself if I can just keep up with that lady I will do great. I reached the last mile and was drenched and everything got really heavy so it slowed me down a bit but I reached the finish line in 39 min and 20 seconds!! WAHOOOO it was so much fun!!
