I've been planning a 5k since January. There are only 5 of us workhorses on the committee. The race is May 20th. Here's the flyer. Unfortunately, I will be in Cleveland, running another race, on May 20th.
In honor of the Hadassah Spring Fling 5k that I've been planning, but won't even be attending, I ran my own little simulated 5k today instead of the scheduled 3 miles. (I'm probably breaking all the taper rules, if there are any).
I'm happy to report that while this may not be a PR for a real race, I think it is definitely a PR for a simulated race. How I wish you could simulate that adrenaline rush!
My splits: 9:54, 9:15, 8:53, 0:47. Total: 28:51.
Check out how I get faster every mile, just like I would hope to in a real 5k! Finally, I'm learning how to run with my brain.
Have a happy weekend everyone! 2 ballet performances down, only 2 more to go today. Maybe this afternoon they'll shake things up and one of Cinderella's ugly stepsisters will get to marry the prince.
Is it too cold to run today?

that's great that you've been working on this race! How many people are registered so far?
We have a bunch of local races here, and they are always so much fun.
The flyer is very nice...professional.
nice 5k time too. You've been making serious progress this year.
As of Friday afternoon there were 65 preregistration entries. So much is weather dependent and we're a 1st time event. I hope we have at least 200 on race day. There are 3 runners on the committee and we know what we like in a race. Also, I've paid alot of attention to what V-Teamers like wrt prizes, age groups, and post-race food. We've had so many donations that we made money before anyone registered. Hadassah has alot of great support!
