First 5K and Graduation

I just got the all clear from my work and will be running my first 5K on Saturday August 4th, which I just counted out and is technically my graduation from the program! I'm a little nervous since I won't have run the full 5k before, but maybe I'll push myself on Week 8 day 2. Anyway, I'll need all the luck I can get! Goal for this one is to finish but I will definitely be trying to sign up for another one and focus more on my time.

Be careful pushing yourself too hard on W8D2 because you don't want to risk injuring yourself and therefore be unable to even participate in the race your employer so generously let you have off. Just give it a sincere and honest effort and you will finish the 5K without any problems. Let us know how it goes.0

Hah, thanks...I definitely won't push myself past my means. I ran 2.66 miles on Week 7 Day 1 so I've just been adding a little distance. If this rain lets up, I'll stick with the same distance today.0
