Leonard Nimoy Memorial 5k

 For Spock.

Run like a princess Ariel 5K

 I am obsessed with this medal and my awesome tee.

Girls Run the World 5k

 Another virtual 5k  from Flex it Pink is in the books! I finished in under an hour, not my fastest, but not my worst. 

HHL5K : 5K #8

The HHL5K was another Treadmill 5K.
I do enjoy them so.

 On our way to the gym. Kaleb was being supportive.

This just seems to be the picture I take before the treadmill 5Ks now. I dont even question it. I just do it. 

I also took the time to put on some make up (blush and chapstick), so I wanted one more "before" pic before the sweaty, red faced Paige took over.

I cannot tell you how happy my OCD heart was that I finished at 41 flat. 

When it was over I was exhausted...

But I had finished, and in a pretty good time for me...

So I was happy.

 Check the tee...  (there are a couple other designs too)

and my bib and medal that I'm too lazy to flip. 

This race doesn't actually, "officially" happen until September, so if you want to do it, you can get it on ETSY and read about it HERE. 

Puppy Love Run, by Will Run for Bling and Charity - 5k #4 (Virtual)

Ok, so this was my first run with our new double jogger stroller and it was NOT easy. First I couldn't' find the flat trail I was supposed to running on, then Kaleb needed me to stop 5 or 6 times and I just felt all discombobulated. But Eventually the kids fell asleep and I found my trail and I ran and earned myself this pretty little thing. 

This is what they looked like when I stopped.

I was also having trouble with my fitbit tracking my steps as I held onto the stroller, but I clipped it to my bra (as suggested by Miss Emily) and it worked perfectly.

So, this was the Puppy Love Run and it was benefiting the World Animal Protection, So I ran  in honor of my Buster who died in January 2011. 

This is a cast the vet made of his paw when we took him in after the accident, but it was already too late. 

Our last images of Buster captured by Kara Rush Photography.

My total time was 48 minutes and 9 seconds. A good time for me ... considering.

Heart and Sole, by FlexitPink - 5k #3 (Virtual)

I just loved the swag that came with this Virtual Race. It was put on by Flex It Pink and thats just an awesome site a and its all for Love-Water.org

I ran this on a treadmill and I had a rough start to this race and my music malfunctioned and I got super frustrated, I had to work hard not to slow down or just stop. I ran w/o music (which I don't like doing) and just tried to push myself.

Well, I lived and it felt good.

My fitbit and love-water bracelet. Pink and Blue. 

(also, my fake/preggo wedding ring... I'll be out of it soon... I hope)

Finished in 42 min and 20 seconds. Not bad, I think.

Resolution Run 2015, by Get Fit for Bling - 5k #1 (Virtual)

MY FIRST 5K!!! It was the Resolution Run put on by Get fit for Bling, which I thought was appropriate.  It was also benefiting Autism Speaks, which is also awesome. 

Its the last day of January, and I decided to have a goal of one 5k a month this year. I'm so excited to do this. 

I went to the gym and ran it on a treadmill, in the best tee ever. My spirit Tee. 

This is my first (and only) attempt at a "during" selfie. This will not happen again. I almost fell.

Just like the couch to 5k training, I ran in jogging and walking intervals. I still pushed myself but I didnt over do it.

Best part? I did it. I DID IT. Me! The woman who hasn't done any intentional exercise (not really) in about three years. I'm so happy. 

I cant wait till I get my medal!
