Yesterday was my first official race-- if you could call it a race! My friend Lara and I entered the 5K run at the Shamrock Shuffle in Madison, WI. They had a 2mile walk, but that didn't seem like anything. So, we did the 5k. Believe it or not, we actually beat 10 people! And, this was Lara's first run/walk. She's never actually run in anything before, and we did actually run a little bit! I was glad we could do this together. I think we finished in 49 minutes. That's not breaking any records, but it is a fast walk. As for the photo, I'm not sure why I'm tipping over, even though this was taken after the race, outside of State Street Brats, and AFTER we decided to have a beer to celebrate. The other picture was actually pre-race and contains only coffee, but seeing as there were no bathrooms on the route, I did nearly have an "Ooops I crapped my pants moment" on Observatory Drive. It passed without passing shall we say... and we shuffled on to the finish line sweaty but otherwise clean.
