  • Quote: EZ - thanks for the info! Well I did it 5K walk! it was GREAT!

    Time: 49:27. not my best, but I'll take it with the 80 degree heat!
    AWESOME ENYGIRL! Our first one in....congratulations! I'm just glad you made it in that heat!

    Quote: i would like to join the 5k event too. could i be number 99?

    i am just getting back into this, so whichever category that puts me in.

    so do we just do the 5k and then respond to the thread with a time that we took to complete it? and is it just any one of those days? is that right?

    ok, thanks!
    I have you in at #99 ~ I was going to give you "Agent 99" but it looks like you will be CARPOOLING with BEACHPOTATO! yes, just post your time here...you can do the race when you have time...most will do it over those 3 days but some...see above...are doing it already...NO RULES!...just have fun! and enjoy it!

    101 it is SUPER-K! With all your miles I think you have "walked" HWY 101!
  • SO last night I was sitting around the cottage and suddenlt got into a panic! I thought that THIS saturday was August first! So i get on teh phone and call my mom to ask her if shes still in for the 5k 'tomorrow' and she just says.. Abby.. that's not for another week. WHOOPS! I'm all ahead of myself.. I think that calls for a five k today anyway!
  • I wanna do it too! I'll be doing the 5K with my dog. So I guess I fit in there. He'll be exhausted when we are done but I use more calories dragging him around than when he is dragging me.

    You are in at #82...poor puppy...
  • I did my 1st practise 5k today. It was so hot out! What a good workout though! I didn't time myself this time, but I will the next time
  • We did a practice...5 m? It was me, hubby, oldest daughter walking and taking turns pulling our younger two daughters in a wagon. It took us just under 2 hours of walking to complete 5 miles - so, roughly, 1 hour and 15 minutes for the "5 k". I have an inkling it would have gone a bit quicker if it weren't for dragging around the little ones (can I claim a handicap?) :P.

    AWESOME!

    If NO bandaids were involved then you may use the kids as a handicap
  • Bump!

  • Ok, I'm getting excited for this one! I managed to jog a mile in 13 minutes last week and today I got my birthday present to myself (a few weeks early) so I can wear them in the 3fc Midsummer Night's 5k! I will try to take a picture of my feet in action. I've been wearing them around my office all afternoon to the delight of my feet I realize I've been "making do" with my old shoes for far too long...these are wonderful!!



    Looking forward to reading about everyone's 5K day(s)!
  • Thanks for the bump ISABELLA!

    MANICK I just got a new pair of Asics this week-end. I usually wear New Balance but I liked the way these looked and they felt good...plus I got them at Kohl's on sale. Yours look REAL FAST!!!
