41:49--had to do my run on Friday evening, flying out tomorrow for grandmother's funeral--Good luck, everyone!!  I ran my first 2 1/4 miles straight ever--YAY!!
Looks like I am the first (thanks to time difference):

Goal: sub-30, ran: 24.44

That was posted in the original thread this morning, I was just toooo fast:-))))
well....i think it's a good thing that slappy and i decided not to meet up for the 5K today. I would be driving 3 hours in the middle of a snowstorm today, and the race very well may be canceled! i think i'm going to do a 5K April 1, so maybe i'll count that as my C-C 5K :)

great job, hanno and lebrowne!
Ahhhh.

I am so thrilled right now. My goal was sub 22min and I ran the 5k in 21:36.

3rd in my age division, 17th overall.

Not bad for my first race ever.

38:30  I didn't do so well at training, so this was actually the first 5k I've done yet, so I was pleased.  I was planning for at least 45 minutes.  YAY!  This was fun.

I didn't sign up before hand, but I ran a 5k this morning.  Time was 22:40.  I'll run another one this evening and post that time later.  It just happens to be exactally 5k from my house to my work, so if I run to work I get 2 5k runs in.
37:35
42 minutes....  This was my first 5 K and the first time that I have ran outside.  Usually it's on a treadmill, so my times weren't great but I figured out a wonderful route to run and it has hills to help increase endurance :).  Great job everyone!!!

Wow I"m so glad everyone is posting the times. I'm just a beginner and have no idea what a good time will be when I can run the whole 5K.

Walked 3 mins/Ran 1.5 mins and did it in 40:33. Higher than my normal 39mins but it is extremely windy out and that made it a bit harder I guess.

But I'm happy. Tomorrow is only my 2nd week of running and I will be walking 3 /running 2. Can't wait till I can run the whole thing :)

Great job everyone!!!
Congratulations Everyone! Great times up there!

I wasn't able to racewalk for this 5k due to shin splints, however I did walk it as fast as I could without straining my shin too much and my end time was 38:24. 

Off to ice the shin and drink a guinness!

slainte!
holy crap daizymae, you walked the whole 5K & only took 38:24! You are a FAST walker! Good for you!!!
With great regret, I was not able to run this.  I have been ill, recovered, and been ill again.  Next time.
My 2nd 5k today was a little faster because I pushed myself a little harder.  21:43 time.  I have an 11.2 mile run planned for tommorow.
LOL Thanks deejlb! I'm trying to learn how to be an amateur racewalker for real :) Have a goal of racewalking a half marathon in November!!

NYAD ~ sorry that you're sick again :( Feel better soon.

BUBBA827 ~ OMG, you're FAST!
Daizymae - I will be lucky to beat your walking time when I RUN my 5K today!! LOL! That's incredible!

I am off to my 5K in a few hours, and I'm sooo nervous!! I ran my last one back in October at a time of 37:59... that was without any conditioning at all. Up until then, I'd been walking only. I intended to walk that 5K, but I got carried away and ran the whole thing. After recovering from plantar fasciitis that i got as a result of running too hard, it got me motivated to complete the couch-to-5K program. I have since been running 3x's a week, but have never duplicated that time in training. So I fear that I won't get a PR today and that will really bum me out... because I'm pretty competitive with myself! And also because I used to be soooo much faster!! ARGH.

My whole family is coming to cheer me on. They're all still asleep but I am awake drinking coffee and listening to the gigantic butterflies in my stomach! What's more I overdid it last night - we went out for pasta dinner. I can still feel all the pasta sitting like a rock in my stomach. I hope I can make it through this 5K without puking. :-)
Goal was sub 25 and I finished at 24:17!   I was 10th in my age group.  The race was huge and they only posted the top 500 times.  They said they think there were about 1500 runners for this first annual event!

Off to run my 5k at 5pm m.s.t.   So I will post my results around 8ish tonight (cuz I will be lifting weights after I run so I won't be back quickly)

I am so excited to see everyone one posting their times!!!! I really hope I make my goal!
JENMCC ~ Hope you set your new PR!!! That's so great that you have a whole cheering section attending your race today! I hope it went well :) I'm a much better walker then I am a runner; I don't seem to have any endurance for running, but I do when I walk. Go figure!

NYMO~ WOW!! I cannot imagine being that fast! Very cool! Is that a PR for you?

LAREINA ~ How'd it go??!
Woo-Hoo!! 33:59 ... four minutes faster than my last 5K!!! Turns out my ipod Nike thingie needs some calibrating...cuz it's been wrong!

And I actually think I could have done even better, if it hadn't been so darn cold, and my shoe hadn't come untied. :-)
23:25 (treadmill, 0 incline)

Igor and I just got back from our 5k.  Still treacherous outside with the snow and ice, so had to hit the treadmills at the gym.  Good news is we could pace each other and thus avoid competition/embarassment by posting the same time =)
