I am, how about IM Canada, do not enter til Aug 28? Have to line up at about 4:00AM pay my $600.00. And train for 12 months to be ready. But hey I have nothing but time.
As for you, you do not run a fun 5 or 10KM race, you run/ walk. Run 2 minutes, walk one....Next week run 3 minutes, walk one.....After that runs become longer till about 10-12 minutes and you will notice the walks are getting shorter and longer apart or like me not needed. The hardest thing to do about a run is signing the entry.
You are a teacher, right. So I'm thinkin you can write better than most. Imagine the thoughts of H as he hears you have entered a race. Challange he to enter. My kids love to come and cheer. They even enter some short races.
I am pulling for you Sherry. YOU are pulling H out of his funk. KEEP IT UP.
