I've been a lurker for a while and decided to come out of lurking with a question :-)
I had done the C25K a few summers ago but then the race was, in my mind, a fail. I didn't do very well but was glad I finished. I started doing it again earlier this year and then found a C210K that I started. It's a 13 week program and I'm on week 7, day 2.
I was looking to see if there was a race near when I finish and I found a race that will be when I'm at week 10 or 11. I really want to sign up but can't decide. There's a time limit of 1 hr. 30 minutes and at this point I can do 6 k in about 45 minutes (alternating between jogging and walking).
Would you sign up? Or wait for a different race later on?

Personally, I'd do it. That's 5 weeks to build up 4km which, to me, would be doable. You just need to be careful in how fast you build to avoid injury. Also, when you're traveling can you not run at all? Even the treadmill of a hotel just to keep up the momentum? Good luck with whatever you decide!
