I wanted to challenge myself, so I did it! It's called the Turkey Run and it's a 5K Walk/Run on November 23rd in the Como area. Can't wait!!! My roommate signed up with me and we will train together to prepare for it! :-)

Elena,

That is so awesome! I know that when I get closer to goal I want to do the ride across Iowa RAGBRAI that happens every July. Did it twice when I was much younger. Huge goal for me. Congrats on your commitment!

That sounds fun! Though I am not sure if I could handle biking too long...my butt would hurt, lol... especially considering how bony our butt will be at goal, lol

Way to go! I'm proud of you. I wish I could commit to something like this. Toying with the idea of running. Biking - ah, no. You are right. Back side gets too boney and starts to hurt. That is why I gave up on biking this summer.. Sore!!! But that's just me.

Way to go! You ROCK!

Way to go Elena, this is a commitment that will be so worth it. You will come out of it exhausted but feeling like a million bucks!

Someday I will do something like it also!
