Default 3FC Canadian Thanksgiving ~ Columbus Day 5K

Is it already time for another 5K? You bet it is. No time like the present to get fit and firm.

We have had such great results from our first five 5K's that we can't stop now! Our 6th 5K will be... CANADIAN THANKSGIVING~COLUMBUS DAY, OCTOBER 10-13.

For those that are new, or not sure what is going on here, we are about to enter our 6th 5K as a group. We do a 5K, which is 3.1 miles, on or about the same day supporting each other with our results and experiences. You may run, jog, walk, wog, bike, swim, hop, skip, jump, or fly (no, don't try that !). You get the idea. We have found out that it almost impossible not to fit into one of our categories...if you can't find one, we will make one for you!

ALL SIGN-UPS and your NUMBERS will be posted in the post following this one. After you post and I reply that you are in, you may go to it and find your number. I won’t be able to come close to Gary’s colorful posts but you will find your number and your name.

RESULTS will be posted in a separate thread that will be created just before October 10.

DATE OF THIS 5K ~ Friday, October 10 thru Monday, October 13. This gives us about 6 weeks to train and 4 days to complete it or do several of them if we want.

CATEGORIES ~ If you can’t find a category that describes you, we'll make one up. Anything goes (anything nice, that is!!! )

ELITE ~ For those that do this for a living!

SEMI-ELITE ~ For those that walk/run 5K's on a regular basis

VIRGINS NO MORE ~ For all of you that started here as VIRGINS and are now experienced

VIRGINS ~Self explanatory

BALL and CHAIN ~ Grab that significant other and get them moving

TREADMILL ~ Yes you can do it on a

SWIMMING ~or by water

I'D RATHER READ A BOOK ~ nothing wrong with that...but maybe it's time to MOVE IT! just a little

ME and MY MACHINE ~ or by or or or you can 'rastle yer 3.1 miles if ya want...not picky here

DANCE ~ dance it

I WANT MY MOMMY or FAMILY PLANNING ~ Take the kids

GRAB the NEIGHBORS ~

INSTALLMENT ~ Take a few days to finish it if you need to

ME and MY SHADOW ~ Got a dog? or a cat? how 'bout a pet

CAN'T AFFORD GAS NO MORE! ~ Time to look for an alternative to your transportation needs?

EARLY BIRD SPECIAL ~ The dates aren't good for you? Well too bad! You can do it anytime, we accept ALL entries!

NEIGHBORS ARE TALKING ~ Are you looking so good the neighbors are talking? well get out there and show it off!

SHOP TIL YOU DROP ~ A few miles around the mall works for us too

YARD PARTY ~ Mowing the grass and weed whacking for about an hour will do!

THIS IS FOR THE BIRDS ~For BIG and little BIRD'S and BARBARA and CYNDIM

I LOVE A PARADE ~ Bring your friends ~ wear your costumes!

As you can see, we will find a way to get you in....give it a shot...we have had some amazing success stories...add yours to the list.

Time for new stories! Time to try something new! Time to get up and MOVE IT!!

Wow I don't think I've ever been one of the first to sign up. My number has been 35 the last couple of times. I would love to keep it if possible. I am in training as we speak. Next weekend I have an official race to run?, walk, jog.

Of course I do, I'm from the Rock. That's what we refer to as Newfoundland.

Mindy and Julia you are in. Maybe, I should sign up too!

I'd like to give this a go too please
I'd be a virgin and on a treadmill so whatever category you think I should be in.
I might do it the weekend before or the weekend after as we are putting on a new roof that weekend and it's DH's birthday weekend.
Thanks for organizing this!
