The Chase is On!

I ran Tuesday morning. The first thought that hit me was, 'Damn, its cold!' The second thought came as I approached the half-mile distance, 'What was I thinking signing up for a 10k!'
Needless to say I quickly dropped the negative thoughts and chugged up the hill like any good marathoner would. (I don't recommend taking a 3 month break once you've gotten your 'good' habit underway.)
This Saturday is the 10k in Clinton. I plan on running it, although walking seems great. I have not expectations - this is more of a gauge to compare progress in the weeks to come. I believe I'll take a little over an hour. My parents and coworkers plan on being there. They are all walking. I think Kristen and some others are running it too.
Well, I will see if I have any funny stories to tell with the first official race of 2007.
