So, to train for this unprecedented event, I run several times a week outside. This has to be early in the mornings because here in AZ the summer is rapidly descending upon us. Also, as part of my training, I've been going to the YMCA several times a week. I don't know if fun is the right word, but its been exciting having this goal to work toward. Steve is also training, but for the 10K on the same day. We'll see the fruits of our labors in just 4 1/2 short weeks!
Stef will be so proud of you! Maybe she'll come to Utah and run it with you! : )
ReplyDeleteWow! Good for you! I too am not a runner and a 5K would be the longest for me too! Maybe someday I will do that, but GOOD LUCK! You will do awesome! And good luck to Steve too!
ReplyDeleteKaren I AM so proud of you! This is awesome and before you know it a 5k will feel like nothing. You are strong and determined! You can DO IT!! Janet is good about finding the positives about running, you should talk to her about it. I've tried to adopt some of them. Among other things it is a great stress release.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Karen! The freedom 5k was the first race I ever ran back in 2005! You will do great!
