On Saturday, Jarrod and I completed our first race. We've been doing the Couch to 5K program since June. We haven't finished the program yet, so we decided to just do a one-mile Fun Run. Jarrod did wonderful and finished first in his age group with a time of 9:15. I finished 2nd in my age group (and I think there were only two in my age group lol) with a time just over 12 minutes.
To some people, running a mile might not be a big deal. I think it's a huge deal for me considering how out of shape I was, and the fact that I had a baby 3 months ago. It was a great morning to run and we are proud of our accomplishment!

We hope to complete our first 5K in August. We have to coordinate races around who can keep Ben. Jarrod's parents were gracious enough to keep him all day Saturday, as we ran the race in the morning, shopped in the afternoon, and then had dinner at a wonderful restaurant to celebrate our anniversary that evening. Our anniversary isn't until Thursday, but we had to celebrate Saturday evening while we had a babysitter! We dined at Canoe, which is a great restaurant in Vinings and sits right on the Chattahoochee River. Our view was spectacular!
