Couch to 5K Running

WE did it.
We started training on May 15th.  Today was race day. The process was NOT pain-free, but
WE.DID.IT!!
 (and then we slunk to the floor and admired the great and varied assortment of running shoes while they awarded the prizes.)
We were happy to discover that the proceeds from the 5K benefited the Special Olympians in Shrewsbury.  A side note: Sweet Mesquite won a package of funky tie dye running socks AND came in 2nd in her age category!
'Twas indeed "a hot race for a cool cause."
