Training for the Run

I signed up for the Komen NC Race for the Cure today. Caroline and I did this race last year and we ended up having a lot of fun. Last year I was amazed at how many people turn out for this race and how cool Hillsboro Street looks full of people. I almost forgot about signing up for this race, but Grae reminded me of it.

This race is Saturday June 9th at Meredith College. The competitive 5K race is at 7:15 am. This is actually a good time since later on in the morning there are many more people there for the other festivities. Last year we ran, checked out all the booths and left before the big crowd arrived.

This should be a fun race and a good start to my Saturday. Later on in the day I’ll be enjoying myself at the Carolina Roller Derby Bout Caroline may actually be playing in this bout and I’m excited to see her. Also there will be an after party to celebrate the win (do they ever lose?)

Looks like there is a 5K race right around the corner from me.  I haven’t signed up yet, but will ride out there tomorrow morning to see if I can still get in.  I did accidentally sign up for the 1 mile race.  I’m not sure how I screwed that up.
