I have never done or even seen a 5K. Can you tell me what to do? What to expect etc...?
I am walking it with the stroller.
Thanks!!

Talk about firsts! This is my first time on the site as well as my first 5k! I am not a walker...avoid exercising whenever I can! Wouldn't you know that only a certain Mouse could inspire me to do this. I too am nerveous about keeping up the pace. I think given the time I can do the distance but do hate the idea of being dragged off the course by that certain Mouse! I will be walking with my mom and 16 year old daughter (daughter already said she was going to ditch us as she wants that medal). My husband is not a Disney fan (who knew) and my daughter and I make an annual pilgrimage from Ga. This year we decided to combine our trip (usually in Jan) with this ambitious goal. I will be walking to honor my best friend who lost his fight aganist melanoma last Nov.....even after this LONG post trying to convince myself I can do it...still doubt it! Any word on the course? Needless to say...I am hoping for downhill!
