Registered for 10K, 8K and 1/2 the other day!

I am really doing it again!  I was shooting more for a Fall 1/2, but I wanted a challenge.  I am in the long process of losing weight and needed a new goal/focus.

The 1/2 is on June 3, the other two are next month.

The 1/2 course has a 13 min/mile requirement and isn't flat at all.  I am nervous, but know I can drop to a 10K if I really can't hack it.

  • Well, go you! Which half? One of the new ones this year? I think AA and Lansing have them now...
  • That is great Steph!  And you totally can be ready to run that half in sub-13 minute miles by June 3rd.

  • I ran that race in 2010.  It's hilly, but nothing you can't handle!  Wink  Especially when you are out training while pushing a double jogger!!

    It was a pretty decent PR for her, actually! You'll be great. :) 

  • Sounds like a good challenge; best of luck!!
