Be Greater Than...Flab!
As I mentioned a week or so ago, I've been hoodwinked into running a 5K with some mommy friends. I've started the "Couch to 5K Running Program" and have decided that I'm so pathetically out of shape that I'm repeating the first week of training again (perhaps indefinately...). At this point, I'm not sure why people would ever do this for pleasure, but I'm hoping at some point to find out!
So I'm filling out my very first race entry form today. Yipee! I may end up walking a good portion of it, but I'm okay with that. I'm just trying to lose a few pounds and get in better shape before I hit 40 because I can't imagine it gets any easier after that.
For those in the area, I invite you to come join us. My friend Kelly's t-shirt business, Be Greater Than, is co-sponsoring the 5k, 10k race at River Valley Ranch in Hampstead, Maryland. I'm thinking I might pay to get a custom shirt that reads "B> Flab" on the front, with "Fit" on the back to wear that day!
The race is on Saturday, August 23 so it will be a HOT 5k but much of the race is on shaded trails. There are a bunch of us who have never raced before, so it will be fun!
