Here we are (Saturday June 19), having just finished Vern's No Frills 5k. My hubby surprised me by running most of the way. He finished about a minute ahead of Sherie (my coach and friend) and me. I'm proud of my results, finishing 5k in about 38 1/2 minutes. We ran a pretty steady race for the first 2 miles. We ran most of the last mile (one short little walk). I said "Oh my goodness!" about 50 times and Sherie reassured me every time that I could do it. For the last stretch she coached me as though I were swimming. I raced as a swimmer from the age of 6 to 16 so it was very effective to talk to me in terms of 50m laps in an individual medley.
This marks a major milestone and is a reflection of tremendous progress since investing in the Wii Fit Plus back in December.

Big congrats! A worthy feeling of accomplishment! Barbara
Thanks Barbara! I'm definitely glad to have survived that major milestone! (and better than survived. I ran my best time ever).
