But I didn't puke my heart out". A great quote by Michael Scott! We watched the Rabies 5k episode of The Office in preparation for April 22nd, when my work held their first 5K run/walk as part of our Active For Life program. Melissa joined me and we completed our first 5k! I wish I could say that we ran it in 25 minutes, but I'm still proud to say that we walked it in about 50 minutes. It made me want to get in running shape so I can actually compete with the runners next time! The fastest male and female runner took home a trophy, so that would be worth it right??
Here we are before wondering if we'll make it in the 80 degree weather (the hottest day of the year thus far).

Like a cake walk . . . we were a little thirsty afterward, but it wasn't bad at all.
At each mile mark Melissa put a flower in her hair. At least she smelled flowery instead of sweaty afterward!
We ran for the last few steps before the finish line so everyone would think we ran the whole time--I'll have to find that photo and try to post it later. I'm sure we didn't fool anyone (mainly because they all passed us while they ran and we walked!). We had a lot of fun so thanks to our HR and training department for putting it together.
