Doing runs before a 5k?

So I found a link to a running site that helps you find local runs to join. I already have planned to run 5k in April when I should be about done with the program. However, I am seriously thinking about trying a 1M fun run in the next 2-3 weeks to see how well that works out. Then I can save the big 5K for when I complete the program. Has anyone tried doing that? Or would it be best to wait it out? I completed W1D1 tonight and although I am sore, I feel pretty darned good and I want to do whatever I can to motivate as I increase that run time.

No reason you can't go out and do that run. After all, it's a fun run so go out and have fun! One mile should not be a problem.0

I'd just turn on my C25K program and do the run as part of your normal workout. Walk the five minutes before the race starts.0
