Well I am pleased to announce that Willem and I made the commitment to run in a 5K this April. We’ve really been enjoying our runs. As you probably have noted with my recent posts. Willem said, doing something new like running is more worthwhile if you make a commitment towards a goal like a race. In the beginning, for me, it was to get healthier and to help ease the tension of no nicotine in my system. Now after a month or more I think I am ready for the challenge. Willem believes that at the end of our 12 week training we should be able to do more than a 5K. However, we are doing a slow climb to running consistently. I believe we will be fit for it but I am more concerned about maintaining the pace without wanting a break to walk. So even if we are beyond the 5k training point I think this is a good start for amateurs. Now of course everyone is telling me I will get the bug and want to do a marathon. We will see.
