I did it. I ran my first outdoor 5K- Run the Vineyard. It took place in Cape May,NJ at the Cape May Winery. Yes, you guessed it our reward, wine tasting! I am not much of a drinker but occasionally enjoy a glass of wine now and then. Not sure if 10:30 in the morning after a run was the perfect time but hey, it was included as well as a tech shirt and medal.
The weather was beautiful and cool and most of the run was shaded with trees. I set a PR at 42.53 minutes and I wasn’t last. I never said I was fast but its my best so far and that is all that counts right? I know a 5K is nothing to most runners but for someone who has never ran a day in her life until this year this is a big deal. It was a great experience and can’t wait to do another one soon. For now I have a few virtual races under my belt as well with a few more to finish up. My bling is starting to add up.
