    To add to this. If you can not do this on the 14th do not fret. You may complete the 5k at anytime you like and post your times on this thread and will be included the same as the ones who do the 5k on the 14th.
    AHTH

    4 days away, I am going to walk it, after being on Anitbiotics for the last month and not exercising more than just a walk here and there, I am finally Sinus infection free. My last pill will be thursday so by Saturday a 5k should be fine. Lets do this guys. AHTH

    I so understand, I just got off of Antibiotics on Thursday. Been on them for over a month, this was my first workout in that time. It was killing me.

    I felt bad about being sick for the virtual 5k, so feeling better today I ran my 5k after work today. Although this was not my best 5k time by any means, it felt good to complete it. Time was 37:00 flat.
    AHTH !

    Wow, Tony. Walking a 5k in less than 50 is flying - nice.

    I have been really sick as well. I did run a 5K this morning in about 35:00 if that counts.
