MILESTONE: 5k at White Rock Lake
I’m registered and have sights on my first major milestone: to run a 5k race. I’ll be joining friends from work and college on September 1st to run in the Labor Day 15k & 5k Run at White Rock Lake.
As I mentioned earlier, I have run a 5k once before just over two weeks ago in a workout, but never before in an organized event. I’ve only run twice since then, taking a break over vacation and missing a day last week due to rain.
This week I’ll be running the Couch to 5k week 6 intervals to work my way up to running the full distance again.
I’ve got to make sure I get all three workouts in this week if I want to have a chance to beat my practice time.
Are you in Dallas or close by? Have you been thinking about running in a local event? Come on out! You can register this week online, at Run On! or even on-site race day. I hope to see you there.
Until then, let’s go run!

Mark, I think I’ll be able to run this with you guys. We have guests this weekend, but they are most likely leaving first thing Monday or Sunday night, so hopefully I’ll see you there (plus KJ and whomever else).
Mike, that’s great. I’m sure you and KJ will be much faster than me. It will be rewarding to see you both welcome me when I finish.
