1st Annual Bongolo 5K WALK/RUN!

Yesterday, July 2nd, was the 1st Annual Bongolo 5K WALK/RUN! There were 24 of us who registered to participate including Missionaries, Africans and many Visitors on the Station.



First the runners took off and then those of us who were walking. At first I stayed ahead of many of the walkers.



Then everyone passed me up and I was behind:



Although I came in Last at 55 minutes 25 seconds, I met my GOAL of improving my 1st ever, June 25th, 5K WALK time of 60 minutes. I had shaved off 4 minutes and 35 seconds!



At the end of the 5K WALK/RUN we gathered for stretching, carbs and water.



Here I am, the oldest walker in the 5K (62 years old next month), with the youngest walker who is 55 years my Junior!



Oops... Nope... she wasn't the youngest. Our youngest was pushed in a stroller!



Thanks for checking out my 5K Photos!
