Thanks for stopping by my blog. :) I'm a new follower of yours now too!
Congrats on the new PR for the 5K. I would definitely count it. And extra congrats on the 2nd overall! That is awesome!

This post is close to my heart because I've never run a 10k either. I think I might make it happen this year too. I've done everything from 5k, 8k 5mile, 12k, 15k, 10mile, to half and full marathons. This is the year of the elusive 10k for us! ;)

That is so funny...I have never done a 10k either!...

That is so funny...I have never done a 10k either! I have done a TON of 5ks and one half marathon! I am doing a 10k at the end of May! Just think...you will have an automatic PR since it is your first one! I am sure you will do great!

10k's are by far my absolute favorite distance so you must do it for me. Please! I love them because they are not too short and long enough to feel like I got an awesome workout. I have also heard from several people that 10ks are the best way to improve marathon and half marathon times. Do it! Do it! Do it!

I am running a marathon for the first time in 9 days. Woo hoo!

I'm so glad you found my blog! I have only run 2 10ks but I really like the challenge they give. You can go all out like a 5k but you can still push pace! I would say the most intimidating for me the 25k. I have only run 1 and it stunk! The intimidating thing about the marathon isn't the race it's the training. I loved the race!

You TOTALLY can do this!!

My first race ever is next month and it is a half marathon... Then two weeks later I'm doing a 5K (but I'm going to be my mom's racing buddy on that one, so I won't be going for any certain time, just going to enjoy the day and the scenery because it is a trail 5K).
