Officially registered for the Race for Hope 5K in DC on May 1st!
I am stupid excited to be running it again this year. This was the FIRST race I ever ran. And now in the year since my 2010 Race for Hope I will have run 9 races(including 3 half marathons) making 2011 Race for Hope my 11th race.
Last year’s time 33:29
This year I’d LOVE a sub 25:29 min 5K with a secret hope of shaving a full 10 minutes off of last year’s time – which is POSSIBLE, just not probable.
After my half on April 3, I plan to spend the rest of the month working on speed training.
No pressure AT ALL, but if you want to donate – Race for Hope benefits brain cancer research. Brain cancer fortunately has not directly affected me, but my love of American Idol winner David Cook (who lost his brother to brain cancer the night before the the 2009 race) inspired me to get involved. David Cook has been this weird fitness inspiration over the years and I feel very strongly about supporting this cause so close to his heart.
