46:10

Oh yeah baby, that is my time for the 5K I ran or should I say ran, then walked, and then hobbled, and then ran to the finish line. Even though I am not a runner, (in fact, I really hate to run) this is something I have wanted to do for a long time. I praise all my friends who valiantly run races and kick butt! This all started because Kimball ran the Knights 5K for his school last year and he wanted us to join him this year. Well, this year he talked us in to signing up. Kimball ran it in 21:16, Nick came in at 27:46, and I came in at 46:10. I had told Kimball that if the clock passed 45:00 and I wasn't there yet to come looking for me. Just as I was rounding the last corner I saw him coming! He encouraged me to run to the finish line and he even ran with me. I must say I felt an ounce of achievement (seriously the time doesn't mean anything does it)!
