    Do it! You will be pleasantly surprised with how friendly everyone is. It really is a big running community. You will have a great time. The best advice I can give you is to start slow. Your endorphins will want to start you off sprinting, just relax and you will be surprised how good you feel at the end. Have FUN!

    Be strong and sometimes you have to go it alone.
