In T-minus 8 hours I’ll be taking part in my 2nd 5K – but the first one since my surgery! The first 5K I did was the Gobble Jog which took place last Thanksgiving morning, 2 months before my surgery. I did it on a total whim with my sister and brother-in-law. My time for the Gobble Jog was 52 minutes and 42 seconds. I am super excited to see what my time will be now that I’m almost 70 pounds lighter! I haven’t really set an expectation to run the whole way – if I do, than great! Right now I can jog about 2-2.5 miles without stopping.
This race is the Run Like Hell 5K which is a fundraiser for historic Oakland Cemetery. I bet there will be a lot of crazy characters in Halloween costumes! You get to run through the cemetery. I’ll report back tomorrow after my run. Right now it’s almost 1AM and I just got back from a party – I didn’t drink anything except glass after glass of water, haha. I’m off to bed. Back with more tomorrow!
Break-A-Leg!
Can’t wait to hear how it went
