I just registered for my first 5K race! It's on December 5th at Fort Bragg. I'm suddenly feeling very unprepared. Unlike Angela, I have yet to actually run a 5K!! Can I get ready in just 3 short weeks?
Register? Goodness...that certainly makes it real! Are you still planning on me tagging along? I probably need to register as well, just so I don't chicken out!
You will be ready,and will do great! Just remember don't go out too fast, alot of people do because it is only 3 miles, but 3 miles is a long way if you use all your energy in the first mile. Just remember it will be harder than when you are out for a run, but that is why it is a race, and of course remember it will be over at some point. We have a run here called the "Jingle Bell Jog" where they start near "Wolf Creek" and run through the neighborhoods looking at Christmas lights. We did it last year and it was fun.

By the way, I'm certain you'll be ready!
