So, I'm doing my first 5K this Saturday....any suggestions to prepare? I can easily walk 2 miles regularly (yes, I'm a walker not a runner...YET) and have done 3.3 miles in 55mins multiple times in the last month. any suggestion for preparation would be greatly appreciated!!

I have my first 5k race on Saturday too! I've been running since starting c25k in late January, but I'm still nervous as this will be my first experience running in a race with a pack of other people.
This topic has some great first-race info - he covers everything from a 5k to a full marathon, but it gives you good things to think about no matter what distance you're preparing for.
