5k Challenge!

For a while now, I've been contemplating different goals as it pertains to my running.  [Originally I really hoped to do the Broad Street Run, but registration was closed by the time I hopped onto a computer.]  My brainstorming for a reasonable goal is likely due to a combination of the following:

     a) B is a cross country coach in the fall and a track coach in the spring
     b) I may or may not be shedding for the wedding, or at least trying to
     c) I really enjoy running, but sometimes lack the motivation required to get off my tush

This is where you, my loyal readers, come in!

Goal: I will run at least ten six 5k runs before our November nuptuals.  Maybe I'll even through in an 8 or 10k run or two in the mix.

Your job: Suggest some good races [in the Greater Philadelphia/Wilmington area] for good causes for me to support.  Tell me about the cause and why it means so much to you.  If it fits into my schedule, I will be there.

I am currently booked for a June 4 run at the Philadelphia Zoo.  All proceeds raised will help fund research and support for families dealing with Epilepsy.  Information can be found here!  Thank you, KZ for sharing this opportunity!

Beyond that, I'm really counting on you to make recommendations and perhaps even join me for a race or two!  Thank you in advance. :-)

Have a wonderful weekend celebrating with the mothers in your life!
