I don’t know what came over me, but I signed up to run my first 10K in June. I just finished my first week of training and so far it’s going well! I’ve been a lot faster than I thought I would (as I ran a 7:44 mile tonight), which gives me hope (I mean confidence) that I will be able to finish. Here is a copy of my training plan. I’ll be sharing my thoughts and experiences in the coming weeks.
