I did it...

**Kara and I coming into the finish!**


Well I ran the 5K and made it through without any injury. I actually beat my overall time...31:46. I have a 8K this Saturday which is 5miles and I am just hoping that I can come in under 60 minutes. I am not pushing for speed this time though. I am just hoping to get though it. My knee has been giving me a good amount of pain this week. I am keeping the machine on it two times a day following with ice. It seems to be helping until I can see the doctor on January 6. I want to train for my half marathon. I want to run it in 2012. Before I start training for that I want to get my knee looked at again. I am just keeping the running and exercise up as much as I can. I don't want to injure it and have it set me way back again.
I am still weighing in with Kara. I was pretty much staying the same because I was not able to do any physical activity the past month and a half. I started up running last week and already have lost some. I weigh in tomorrow so I will update you with that when I do. So these are my goals...
Lose another 5 pounds by Christmas
Run two 8K's by January 1, 2012
Keep my knee working
Journal my eating especially on the trip to Erie for the holidays
Weigh in mid January at 145

Here are some pics from the race:
