A few weeks ago I was doing a little searching on the internet. For years I had been interested in running a 5K, and was thinking about it as I was getting healthier last year. I knew that it was going to be a lot of hard and dedicated work. Last year I told myself that I would compete in a road race in 2008 called the Moon In June. The end of February came, and unfortunately registration was not open as of yet. During my searching, I came across a website that was talking about a road race on March 30th 2008. There was a 30K run, 30K walk, relays and a 5K run/walk, and these road races were local. At that moment, I was thinking to myself that this is was something that I wanted to do, and thought that now was as good a time as any. I made sure that nothing else was planned that weekend, and decided to register for the 5K. This would be a great place to start, working up to the Moon In June race. It is now 2 weeks until the race, and I have been faithfully going to the gym for the past month, going 3-5 times a week. I really cant wait until this race. I am getting so excited. This is now crunch time. I know it is going to take a lot of hard work over the next 2 weeks, but I know it will be worth it. I have been eating healthy for a while now, and on a consistant training pattern. I know that this is a 5K run/walk, but I really want to run the whole way, and finish the race. I know I can do it. Wish me luck. I'll let everyone know how it goes. Later.
