I’ve had the honor of running the Zoe Loren Foundation annual 5K Run/Walk since the first year in 2011. It’s one of the best-organized races I’ve ever been to and the atmosphere is unlike another. The route is really close to the beach so the entire thing is rather scenic. I can bring my entire family because they have fun activities for the kids too. This race is a fundraiser and helps provide scholarships for local students. It’s a great feeling knowing that you can have fun while contributing to a good cause.

Love that you mentioned color runs! Great way to start off running 5k’s with a lot of fun and no pressure! If you don’t have one in your town you can host your own version!

Signing in for the first race is always the hardest! Great accomplishment though! It does get easier and more enjoyable with every new race! Keep on running and thanks for the great post and photos!

Wow, you went straight to a 3 mile distance? Impressive for somebody who thinks they are out of shape. I recently completed the couch to 5k program you mention – that is a lot gentler!

Starting is the hardest part! I was super lucky to have a friend who pushed me.
