check-in

It's been about a month since the last one, so let's have a check-in. How goes your running? Done any races, or are you planning any in the spring (or fall, for the Antipodeans among us)? If you're a new member of this community, why not introduce yourself?

I started running regularly last summer and ran a 5K (in the summer) and a ~5K obstacle course (in the fall). During the winter, I sort of stopped, but I'm starting up again and plan on maybe running another 5K or trying a 10K for the spring/summer. Also, hi! :D

Obstacle courses sound/look like such fun, but I'm not sure I have the stamina, nor strength to actually participate in one :)

I thought the same about myself, but surprisingly it's not that bad (well, then again, I wasn't running for speed). The one I ran was Warrior Dash. Imo, the obstacles were spaced out so that you wouldn't get too tired running, and once you got to one, there was a bit of queue and you got to take a breather. I would definitely recommend doing it a group!

Yeah, getting started is the hardest part; you just have to keep at it!
