I picked up the packet this afternoon for my second 5k race – I will be runner 4949.
It’s the 2009 Berkeley Heights 5k – one of the annual races in my town.
While that won’t be the first number across the finish line, I will be crossing the finish line, and that’s a win to me, since I just started running in June.
If you’re thinking about getting in shape and think it’s something you can’t do – try it. Ease yourself in. It sure does feel great when you pass the smallest milestones.
