Sign up for a 5k that is on Aug 11th after having VSG on 6-25.   I'm already walking 1 1/2 miles most days so if nothing else, I think I could walk it.  How far out were most of y'all before you did that much?

That is six weeks out.  You could probably walk it.  I was walking two miles at that point.  But I do remember not being able to do a whole lot physically until I was 8 weeks without suffering somen pain from it.

 I did one at 8 weeks out.  6 weeks I was just able to get back into it and I was MUCH slower/weaker than I had been before surgery.  Honestly I'd give it a couple more weeks but if you were just going to walk I know you could definitely finish but you may not be happy with your time.

Oh, i would definately be walking and just finishing is more important right now then any time :)

 This forum is all about doing things that may seem crazy at first but really are quite doable with some dedication and effort

I would say it is doable. All the efforts will pay off! 

I think walking it would be fine.
