Anyone doing Mickey's Halloween 5K on Oct 2nd?

Don't worry too much about being solo!! I am SURE you will find WISHers doing the 5K, many old time WISHers just can't get to all the different threads anymore but just look for them at the starting area wearing proudly the LIME GREEN of the disboards!!!

Also I am sure there will be some WISH scream teamers out there to cheer you on.
Have a great 5K!!

Good point! I won't be wearing lime green, but maybe I should proudly display a LG Mickey Head somewhere! Although, I do have a lime green water bottle I'm planning to use...

Hey mamacrush,

Sorry to hear about DH and shingles My friend and I are running the 5k and are most likely in that group 15-16 minute miles. That's where we'll start anyway. It is my first race ever too and I have only been training for 8 weeks - we made it through week 7 following the C25k no problems but crashed on the second 25min run So as not to push too much we have been training using run 10 minutes walk 1 for the whole 5k. Seems to be working for us - we did it in about 37 minutes. If you are interested in joining us perhaps you can join us. Do you run solidly for 5k? Does any one see problems with this approach for this race?

A couple of weeks ago, I wouldn't have hesitated to say of course!!! But the last couple of weeks training sessions have really tanked. Right now I'm walking 1 and running one. But we could certainly start out together-- especially since I have no clue what I'm doing and wouldn't mind the company! Who knows, maybe by then my mojo will be back. A girl can hope anyway!
