Who is running a race this weekend?
I realize this may be a tad late for non-US runners, but I'll try to remember to do this earlier next time.
I thought it might be fun for us to have a weekly post to list when and where we're racing so we can send good vibes to each other! (If it's not cool, that's fine.)
I'm running my first 5K on Sunday at 10am! The WTC Run to Remember in NYC. It's on Governor's Island, which is flat, so I signed up kind of on a whim to test myself outside on a flat course. I'm a little nervous since I'm such a relative newbie to running - I just broke 40 minutes for a 5K on my run at the gym today. I don't want to let myself get pushed TOO fast by the crowd and then flame out, but I don't want to hold back and wish I'd pushed more. I'm hoping I can just control the nerves and adrenaline and run within myself for the race, and be willing to walk when/if I need.

Thanks! I'm excited! I'll let y'all know how I do!
