Hi. I just finished my first run in week 1. I forgot how good running feels
I decided to get back into training after running a fun run earlier this month. It was a 5k Santa race. I managed to complete it in 42 minutes and signed up for another 5k in February it's cross country.
Sweet! I did a Santa race a couple of years back, and it was good fun. (Though it was harder than I expected to find a cheap santa costume to fit a chubby guy!) Glad to see you getting back into running
