It took me a while to decide which 5K to run, since they are so many of them. Most of them donate to one charity or another, but I always questions the "how much" they actually donate. A lot of the fun ones for example "The Color Run" or "Neon Vibe" doesn't contribute a large amount (percentage) to the charities they sponsor. So I decided to do the Triumph Crisis Recovery Center 5k Run, as my first one, because it is being thrown directly by them (the charity), and I know women that have been through domestic violence once in their life, and I wanted to show support by doing this for them.

I have been training for months, but I was still pretty nervous about doing a complete a 5K run (not walk). I spent days reading on what to do, and what not to do, in order to not to look like a complete newbie ^_^. In the end, I did complete it, and it was so EXCITING!! I still can't believe I completed a 5K run and got third place in my age group! So amazed!!!! Below are the pictures of the event.
