5K Run, Will It Actually Happen This Year?
Well, I just got back from my first bit of exercise that I have done in a really long time. I tried to do some running today because I have decided I really, really want to try to run in the 5K in October. If I am going to run 3.1 miles without stopping though, it is going to take me from now until then just to be able to do it. I am so out of shape and if I am not extremely confident that I can run the whole thing without dying or walking then I won't do it (like what happened with my training last year, I just gave up because I thought I couldn't do it). Running a 5K has been a goal for me ever since Bryan ran his last 10K. I was so proud of him for running, but I was totally bummed standing on the side of the road thinking the whole time, I wish I could be a runner, too. Since I didn't fulfill my goal last year, I am even more motivated and I am going to try again. I'll keep you posted on the progress!!!

I understand completely! Dave's entire family runs, so I am regularly left on the sidelines by myself. And I almost wish that I could run with them, but my knees protest too much for me. Hopefully one day I'll have a friend that I can walk to 5K with. But for now I'm learning to adjust to the sidelines. So good luck! I think it's awesome that you're trying to do it!
