Because I committed to running a 5K and the only way I will ever accomplish that is by training
Me too! I want to be able to participate in "Tough Mudder" without being dead last. So to get ready for that startin gin December I'll begin a C25K with cross training to get ready to do a "Warrior Dash" AND then maybe at the end of next year I'll be ready for those 11-13 miles for Tough Mudder!
if it starts with a gin, that sounds like my kind of race. Very civilised.0 -

I love it because it's great cardio and I feel so free. I feel it's one of the times that I have just for me and I can clear my mind0
