I Ran My First 5k! And this week I’m a “Thriller” zombie!
One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to run a 5k and I did it yesterday! That’s just little over 3 miles. My time was 30 minutes and 44 seconds!
And this Saturday in Austin, Texas I’ll be participating in trying to break the Guinness World Record for the Largest Simultaneous Dance to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”. I want to say it will be Austin and 83 countries all over the world who will dance the “Thriller” dance at the same time. And, you can dress like a Zombie, which is what I plan on doing! :) I’ve already started to learn the dance through their website videos and let me tell you, it is a workout! lol Here’s the website in case anyone was curious. http://www.thrilltheworldaustin.com/
The scale is also being kind to me today. My hope is I’ll be in the 150’s again by this next weekend coming up. Oh how good I’ll feel if that happens. 
Have a good day Buddies!
Congratulations on the 5k!!! You should be very proud!!
Congrats, lady!
That is an awesome time! Way to go girl!!!!
That in itself is a THRILLER!
That is just awesome girl!
As for the Thriller dance…that is just neat!! Have fun!! Debbie
You go, girl! Wow! Great job! You are such an inspiration!
Big HUGS!
Yay!!!! Congrats that is awesome!!
That is so great I’am so proud of you!!! Have fun with the thriller dance…sounds like a great time. Be sure to post pictures of you in your zombie costume…lol
CONGRATS!!! That is a great time! When I ran the 5k last weekend, it took me nearly 40 minutes.
LOL Your time was AWESOME!
You are one of the ones who inspired me to get running, and I thank you for it!
Yes…post pics!!! I want pics!!!!! LOL
Congrats on finishing your first 5k, there’s such a wonderful feeling of accomplishment when you cross your first finish line. I always get emotional when I think back on October 22, 2000—that was the year I crossed the finish line of my first marathon in my favorite city of all places, Chicago. I’ve completed 5 marathons and 2 half-marathons since, but NOTHING compares to that first one!! Congrats!!
Good luck on the Largest Simultaneous Dance!! Sounds like so much fun!!
That must have been a huge moment for you!. That is very inspiring to me since I want to do a mountain bike race (20 miles) in a couple of years. just got into the biking and really love it> I dont want to win but just having the pinny framed and to know that I did it after being 385 lbs will be a total rush.
I am very happy for you. I know I can do it because you did it!
Congratulations! I would love to do a 5k run. Maybe I will make it a goal for Spring time. I think the Thriller thing sounds like ALOT of fun. I’m going to check it out. Don’t forget to take pictures!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
You are an inspiration.
That’s a goal I also have for myself.
WAY TO GO!!!!!!
Have fun Zombie lady
LOL

Oh my gosh, congrats WW! I’m working towards running my first 5k too. But for now, I guess I’d have to make do with half of that distance. Anyways, you’ve no idea how proud I am for you! =D
