5k tomorrow!

Hey - the Magna 5k is tomorrow. It's nothing official - just a chance to get out and have fun. Here's the info. Come if you can! There will be breakfast served afterward (everything is free!)

UPDATE: I just got home from running the 5k this morning. I finished in 25:58 and was first in my age group - 2nd woman overall. Granted, there were only about 30 of us, but still........

My strategy: Chase the men in front of me and run from the men behind me. I guess it worked well enough. I loved the run! A great way to "start" my training for the 10k in October, right?

We are thinking of doing a halloween run - where you can dress up and run to each booth/trunk to get your candy (plan those costumes well... dressing up like Usain Bolt is a good idea). Halloween run: good idea or bad idea?

Last year we did a family run on Thanksgiving and called it "The Parry Gobble Wobble"... and it ended up just the way the name of it would suggest. But it was a ton of fun.
