Revvin' Up for Run the Rock!

32 days 'til KMXT's Run the Rock!

Now...NOW... I'm getting jazzed to train.
This all started for me on the 1st Day of July.
At that point there were 100 days of training to go.
I'm not sure how...but somehow we're here at 4 weeks and 4 days left to go.
Ordinarily I'd be panicked because of all the training I've done running has been the smallest part. For a bunch of the summer I've been lifting weights at the Kodiak Athletic Club and loving it and I spent two glorious weeks taking summer dance camp classes at Kodiak's Little School of Dance. I got stronger and more flexible but alas,
running is a different animal that requires that "cardiovascular thang."

So WHY am I geeked? 4 good reasons:

(1)Having someone to lap the track with!My buddy Michelle B. (see pic from Ft. Abercrombie 5K) and I have been meeting up at the track during the 12 year old Wild Thing's football practice. (2) Watching the 14 year old Wild Thing turn into a real runner under the amazing guidance of Coach Dunbar and his wonderful crew of KHS X-Country coaches and runners. Observing his transformation has been amazing to me. (3) The recent sunshine & the fresh air and energizing feeling of the coming FALL! and , yes, (4) the quickly approaching date of KMXT's RUN THE ROCK on October 9th!

Have you registered???? Its not too late to sign up and definitely not to late to train for that 5k!
I'm going to run every day and post every day from here on out!

Talk to you soon!
