one 5k down...

11 to go!  yesterday i finally started working towards my goal of completing 12 5k's in a year.  thank goodness i didn't say this calendar year!  so this first event was called the new day 5k and was sponsored by the girl scouts.  a certain someone needed to stop and eat/burp so we finished the walk in just under an hour.  it was a beautiful walk around Mission Bay and the weather was perfect.  the best part was getting a free box of thin mints!

our next event is the San Diego Zoo's Walk on the Wild Side, on october 9th.  technically it's only 2.5 miles but i think we can throw an extra .6 in there somewhere.  last year i did this walk while i was pregnant.  it was to benefit the polar bears.  this year the whole family will walk for the elephants (unless the surf tears a certain someone away).

and i think i already have a walk planned for november and december.  thanksgiving morning there's the o'side turkey trot (move your feet before you eat!) and in december, there's a jingle bell 5k in beautiful Balboa.  not a bad end to the year and beginning of a goal!  anyone care to join us?
