Too cool! My husband also got onboard with racing at 5Ks and 10Ks (and even a 10-miler last year) after being dragged as a spectator for so long! But here’s something funny: He is waaay faster than me! Every time I drag him into some race, he just kills my time! I’m still working on him for a half-marathon or marathon. We’ll see …

Joe, Anne and Jill: Bill says a big THANK YOU for the support!! Also, I think I’ve got him talked into doing a Guest Post for me on why he runs… if I can pull it out of him, expect it in the next week or so.

Jill: Yes, I have my own “wall of fame” in the bathroom. I’ll write about it soon, I promise!

Bill – way to go – that is awesome. I smiled through the entire post. That first race is a powerful thing, good for you! Looking forward to some race reports down the line.

Congrats 504 – great stuff!

Congratulations to Bill on a superb debut in the 5k, and to you too for turning a sideline situation into a teachable moment. That sign is fantastic.

Congrats to Bill! That’s a great first race time! And I’m glad that the little “learning experience” with your son was successful!

Do you have a “wall of fame” of your own?
