I've got a 5K on the calander!

Ok, so they say that a journey of a thousand steps begins with the first step. Well, I would like to run a marathon. I've got my family bought into the idea that I will be participating in the 2008 Disney Marathon. Well to get there, I will be attending smaller races--my first being a 5 K. I will be registering for:

DEC 10 - SUN
22nd Christopher Martin's Xmas Run - 5K - 10:00am - New Haven - (203)481-5933 (www.hitekracing.com)


Let's see what happens. I did manage to get a run in today. I ran 20 minutes walked 3 ran 5 more walked 1 and finished the 3 miles in 33:15. My goal for this race is to run sub 10 minute miles. Let's see what happens...
