I may join up with y'all sometime! Congrats on your newbie-status to running! It's going to become an addiction, I swear.
I'm starting training for a half marathon, so I may want Saturdays to be my long-run day, but still, running with company is always fun. Are you training for any races? Sounds like you're more than ready to do a 5K! Annnnd you get a T-shirt, too. So it's proof that you're a real athlete.
