Saturday is a big day for me. I will be competing in a run as a runner. I've walked many many events, but this will be the first one that I will be running. I am running in the Elizabeth 8K on Saturday. No, I won't be running 8K, but the 3K portion of the run. That is 1.86 miles. I signed up for it only a couple of weeks ago when a fellow preschool Mom mentioned it to me. We're going to run it together. I'm very excited about it.
I never thought that I'd really enjoy running. That was mostly because of a bad knee. The strange thing is that my knee has not been bothering me at all. I've actually found that I feel like I should be running on the days that I'm not running. I actually look forward to my daily run.
The plan is to sign up for a 5K (3.1 miles) at the end of April. That will be followed by the MS 5 Mile Walk in mid May. I plan to run that as well. I'm hoping to eventually work my way up to a 1/2 marathon. I don't think I'll try a full marathon, but who knows. I guess I'll have to wait and see on that.
I'll keep you posted on how things go!
