i'm going out after i drop DS off for school. i signed up for the 10k and am going to try my best. i have been sick this week. but i'm going to do the best i can!

 

[Carys]

Just checking in to say I havent done it yet but am still planning to - waiting for the air quality to clear a bit first (have sand storm clouds being carried over from China mainland on a cold front, not so conducive to walking outside) so will probably wait until the weekend. Awesome job for those who have completed it!

WooHoo!! Just completed my 5k! Not super fast b/c I am still working through the C25K, but I did it!! 43:10

Great job to those who have already completed and best of luck to those who will be running later today!

turn me green, liz!!!

i did it! all i can say is thank goodness it's overcast today. the kids and i have been sick this week. and i don't know that i could've done it if the sun had been hot and beating down on me.

nonetheless, done. 10.12K in 54 min, 59 seconds. i ran a little over making sure i made it past 6.25 miles. lol

We did it Saturday! Time was less than stellar, but day after core class adn week after Princess, just finishin gworks for me!

I was a 38:28 at the 5K point enroute to a 5-miler.

Congrats to all who finished and good luck to all still yet to do today!

Thansk for doing this, Liz!

Just completed my first race virtual or otherwise! Completed the 5K in 41:06. I did have to walk about 2 minutes of it, but I'm happy because before last month, the last time I ran was in high school!

 

[MJonesMBA2001]

Finished! Not exactly my best time, but I finished my 10K in 1:19. If I can link my Garmin elevation or details, I'll do it later.

Good luck, all, and congratulations!

Only did four miles for my St. Patty's Day.

We had an attempted break-in of our cars at 2AM this morning & I saw them in our driveway (literally 10 feet from our bedroom), called 9-1-1, & ran out in my jammies to flag down a police officer.

Needless to say not much sleep last night.

Did my 10K on my treadmill today--our schedule in Rome just wasn't conducive to trying to do a 10K--though we easily walked at least that far every day!!

My time today was 1:12:42. That beats my Valentine's Day virtual by about 7 minutes!!

Now... bring on the Guinness!!

Congrats everyone!!

No problem, definitely wait until you have cleaner air!

I'm in - 5K

Did you already do it, or were you just signing up? (either way is fine!)

You did so great Emily, you're getting over being sick and all!!

That's wonderful!!

Oh no Karin, that's awful! I'm glad things turned out ok.. You did AWESOME getting 4 miles in after going through that!! And anyway, you said on page 7 of this thread you were doing the 5K anyway!

You were able to get it done today so close to your trip, great job!

42 Complete! 29 to go!

I'll be back in the morning.

 

[Pungodingy]

I'm done, 10K in 1:38, finished in the dark, but got it done!

You just caught me before I signed off. Great job getting it done! You are green!

 

[jbm02]

I did my 10K!! I have to admit, it was kind of torture. That's the longest I have EVER run. 65 minutes!!!

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

I managed a 5k instead of the 10k I originally hoped to do. I'll be happy with it. Got it done in 45 min for a 15 min pace. TM sucks.

Doing a 13.1 this weekend in Cary, NC that will more than make up for missing the 10k.

 

[WDWFLgal]

Monday was a great night to run so I went to 6.5 miles in 1:28. Now I'm taking it easy until my Half this Saturday.

Congrats to everyone & Happy St. Patty's Day!

 

[princessbride6205]

I've only been doing strength training and low impact since the Princess, so I did a 10k on an exercise bike. It was my first bike workout in a long time.
10k bicycling in 28:30
[It's okay if this doesn't count since I didn't walk or run.]
Happy St Patrick's Day everyone!

 

[Maherae]

Whoo hooo! I completed my 5K earlier this afternoon, just able to post now.

Everyone has done so well!

AWESOME job, Liz!! Thanks ever so much!!

On to our next virtual meet!
