I ran the Arnold 5K with my friend Kara today. It was only 25 degrees outside and icy.
Matthew had the hardest job of caring for all the kids while I was running. We bundled them all up and they all stayed toasty warm.
The race started just outside of the Ohio Expo Center. We stayed inside to keep warm right up until the race started.
Kara was nice enough to run the whole way with me even though she could have ran it much faster. It was nice to have someone to talk to and she motivated me to keep running when I wanted to walk. My goal was to run the whole 3.1 miles and I did.
It was nice to have my family waiting at the finish line cheering for me. In the picture above I am showing Alexa and Gavin my finisher's medal.
The medal has Arnold on it. I was a little disappointed that we didn't see him in person, but maybe next year!
