Participate in my first 5K run/walk at our local zoo. It's the Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis that a fellow WISHer posted about several weeks ago. DH is running, I'm walking. I'll let you all know how it went tonight! Wish me Luck!

Best of luck!! Don't forget to post how you did! I hope the weather's decent for ya!! Here's some extra sun just in case you need it! Don't forget to drink lots of water during the race, OK?

Well we are home! I did pretty good - they didn't time the walkers but I know that I walked pretty fast and the hills were something I wasn't used to so I think I will probably be a little sore tomorrow. I am SUPER proud of DH! He finished 462 out of 1100 people!! And it was his FIRST 5K. It was a great cause and we are already looking forward to next year. My goal is to be able to run next year instead of walk. Thanks for the support DoeWDW.

Here's a bounce for each 1K you walked!!

You should be so proud of you!! Walking a 5K is quite an accomplishment!! I'm glad you had a good time and are planning to make this part of your life.

Oh, and here's an extra bounce for your DH!!! WOW - what a finish!!

Congratulations to you and your DH. To complete a race is a big accomplishment.


Even if you walk next year remember, walking is a good form of exercise. In fact doctors are always recommending walking.


I am going to walk in the half-marathon Thanksgiving and from what I read on the boards a lot of W.I.S.H.ers will walk in 2005 at the WDW marathon.



Keep up the good work and enjoy the rest of the day you deserve it.

Thanks for all of your support everyone. It means the world to me. I am now officially in training for my first run, no walking this time! I am doing a 5K (hopefully) in January that supports our local Zoological Society. I can't wait!

I'm so proud of you for doing this. Walking 5K is quite an accomplishment and for a wonderfully worthy cause, too. Way to go!
