My First Event

Today Betty (the lady that I run with) called me up and said she found an event for me. It's July 1st, which I don't really like, but it's only a 10 km run, so it should only take me about an hour. Not too bad. And I think that it's in the morning, even though I can't find any start times for it (actually, I not even sure that I linked to the right event...).

Anyways, one of the reasons they Betty wants me to run this is because it's not any distance that I have not done before. Hell, I could do that today if I wanted. But she wants me to get over the anxiety of doing an Event (capital E). If I get all uptight I could have a hard run. So it's better to do it on a known "shorter" distance. The idea is that I'll run a half sometime this fall, event unknown. It's twice my longest (distance) run, but I'll train up to that. It'd be cool to put down. If I keep at it, maybe I'll run a full one sometime.
