5k Run…
July 3, 2008
I haven’t posted in quite some time – but I wanted to ask about your experiences if you have run a 5k marathon. Its not really marathon, since those are 26 miles or something. My girlfriend convinced me to run an Independence Day 5k with her (for those of you who can’t figure it out, 5 kilometers/3.2 miles) I agreed this past Sunday. Unforunately I have not really ran since, o lets say three years ago. My intensive training program has been:
2 miles on Sunday (15 minutes)
2 miles on Monday (14 minutes)
rest Tuesday
3.0 on Wednesday (22 minutes)
2.0 tonight (shooting for 14)
I feel pretty good, I’m not tired or sore. This thing is at 8am tomorrow so we will see how that goes. I am shooting for 22 minutes, I will try to break 20 minutes. I am also pretty sure that it is going to rain so that will make it interesting. I have never done one of these and the last time I ran in a race was in high school. I will post how I did.

the 4th of July 5k is a time honored tradition… where i live there were no less than five holiday road races and each had a fairly large registartion. your goal times were pretty ambitious… how did it go?
