The race I've chosen is the Skirt Chaser 5k. Sadly, I will be running by myself but thankfully I have some wonderful friends on staff who promised to "hold the phone" for me while I race. :)
I'm pretty nervous and excited. The race is on the 18th and it's the first once since I took a brief break after June. I have my goals set and hope to achieve them.
I've also been hitting the gym as much as possible. I pushed myself extremely hard Monday and Tuesday as well as last week and I can feel it already. My legs are so sore and it has stopped me from running the past few days. I really need to learn how to work out and run during the week. I tend to have a problem with balancing both. I tend to fixate on one or the other. My weekends will probably be focused on weights and training and maybe a run when I can. I want my weeks to focus more on runs and some weights/training. We'll see how this goes.
Go you! You can do it!! Have you used a training schedule to help with the balance? I got one off of Runnersworld.com and it's the only way I found a running schedule I could work with that didn't kill me!
