The Challenge

Run a 5K on 10-18-08! That's in just about 3 weeks. I signed up for 3 weeks to a 30 minute running habit and I'm starting today but running 1 minute, walking 1 minute for 20 minutes as per 'the plan'.

The run benefits the family of Officer Chad Schieber, a Midland Police officer, who died last year in the Chicago marathon.

Indirectly I hope to lose weight. I NEED to lose weight - I can't believe how 'big' I am! I just saw pictures of myself on mgoblue.com in the fan photos, gallery 21 and 41 - OMG!!! Yuck is all I have to say!

wow, this sounds like a really great goal! I've never thought to pace myself like that... run 1 minute walk 1 minute. I usually run until I give up and walk home.

Great cause as well!

Boy, that triathalon really has inspired you! Good for you! Good luck!! Chasing after my kids this weekend should be good training :-) I can't wait to hear how you do!
