5K - Misery or Magic?

Tim ran his first 5K the other night...with absolutely no training.

Our church sponsored a 5K run/3K walk.  I chose the walk because of previous foot problems and so I could watch the kids who were riding their bikes around the coarse.  Tim decided to run the 5K, which is great - except he has never really run before.  We do the elliptical at the gym and he does 3 miles there.  So he thought "no problem, this will be just like the gym."  Ah, no.

While I am so proud of him for running and trying, we just may have to get stock in Advil if he does that many more times in the future.
