It's so exciting you finished your first 5K, regardless of the time. That sucks that the course was long - I bet you would have made it otherwise! Regarding the running to music, I do the same thing where I try to run to the beat. My solution was to download some shareware for my iTunes called Beatunes that analyzes all your songs and tells you the beats per minute... then I just make playlists that are at the pace I want to run.

Thanks for stopping by my blog! Funny thing, I took a glance at yours earlier and already added you to my reader! LOL. I teach special ed at the elementary level. Most of the students I work with have learning disabilities. A couple of my students are on the autism spectrum, a couple have difficulties with behaviors, and then one is very low functioning (but secretly the highlight of my day). I look forward to following your blog! Keep up the great work with running! Nice job on your race! Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Hurray for you! It's a huge feat to talk yourself out of walking in a 5k. Last summer I almost quit at milepost 2 and it took everything in me to keep going. 5k's are hard!! Well done! Kelsey,
