CMA Sashay 5K Today!

If you were alive in Lafayette, La today then I do not need to introduce the weather to you, but to be fair I will, it was beautiful. Now, if you were a runner, then it was especially most coveting to be alive this morning. It for me and my family, it went off with a bang, most notable is the fact that my parents completed their very first 5k today. I got my mom in to running about 2 months ago, not to be shown up, my dad hopped on the band wagon. It was a bet actually that lead to this 5k for them, but my motives were ulterior. I wanted to show them that they could complete a 5k, in top fashion and feel good later. No sooner did we get back to the vehicle my mom asked when the next one was, I reminded her that she was running the Cajun Cup 10k, she thought this race was the Cajun Cup, I chuckled and we ironed the details out, now she is really excited. Although she still wants to do at least one more 5k before hand, it wasn't hard to find one.

Mom: 35:12 (which is fantastic for her, she didn't stop once, I am super proud of her)
Dad: 29:36
Me: 23:19

It was a wonderful day, if you were a beginner runner and went out for your first run this morning, you are spoiled.
