Today was the Matam Project 5K. I had been preparing for it, and then stopped when my eczema got out of hand. About the time I recovered from that, allergies hit, which kept me out of training even more. About that time I recovered from my allergies, I had a friend that was attacked in her apartment parking lot. This made me feel like running at 4:30 in the morning was not safe, and so I just quit training. I probably should join a gym, but haven't yet. My point is-I was in no way ready to run a 5K, but I wanted to support this cause, so I still attended, but walked the event. I didn't even check to see what my official time was, but it took a little less than an hour. Oh, and it was 37 degrees this morning!
Here are some pictures from the event:

My youngest won 3rd place in his category. His time was 29:51.
Here we are about to cross the finish line.
