My new love: Goody bags

My sister-in-law Anna, aka super runner,(Really, she came in fourth overall) managed the impossible today...



She convinced me to run a 5K.

I see that the above picture mentions a 5K walk, so I would just like to take this time to clear any confusion and say that I DID run. Thank you.


Below is Tracy, (Anna's sister-in-law) me, and co. at the finish line with our mini pumpkins they handed out instead of trophy's. I'd take a mini pumpkin anyday.


It was definitly worth it for the grab bag: TWO running shirts, pedometer, Hale Center Theater tickets and chap stick. Now that I know 5K's really aren't that scary, maybe I'll run a few more.

On the way home Shane said...next you can run a 10K!!! YEAH RIGHT is all I have to say.

Carrie you make me sound like a rock star. Acutally I am not, I came in 6th place (overall women), not 4th....shoot. Thanks for the praise. But really you were the awesome runner. Way to do you 1st 5k.

That's great Carrie, way to go! I can say that and really mean it because I know how difficult and NON addictive that running is for Stotts!

Way to go! I walked a 5K and I didn't get any goodie bags. Well, that's not true I did get a banana and a cup of water.

Congratulations! Once you can get past that first mile or two, running is the best. Soon you'll be hooked!
