Turkey Trot 5k San Diego Run

On Thursday I just completed my very first 5k. It was the SDJA Turkey Trot. The race started at 8am and Lisa and I were consistently in the middle of the pack the entire race. At about the 1 mile marker my achilles on my left leg really started to kill me, I think that it was the uneven pavement, but none the less it hurt.

We finished in about just shy of 35 minutes and for my first 5k I am thrilled with the results. I am looking at the calendar to see what other fun runs there are in the next few month. The best part of these little runs are the causes that they support; I am always happy to support a local charity or children’s organization!

Mark my words, the first of many 5k runs…
