Last week, I did something crazy. I registered for another 10k.
Seriously, am I nuts?
The race is called "It's Just A 10k" (hah) and it'll be in Nashville! As I mentioned in a previous post, our house is perfectly located near a gorgeous park. Well, the race will be at this park!
Hopefully if I'll be training at that park, I will have an easy time transitioning into "race mode."
All of the training calendars I've seen are all 8-weeks long. Well, I don't have time like that with the big move coming up. Technically, the race is already less than 8 weeks away!
So I will be using a 4-week program that incorporates a lot more strength training. Plus, it's only 3 days a week of running. This is definitely a schedule I could get used to!
I have a goal in mind for what I want to accomplish with this race. This time, I will definitely have music with me and I will be a lot more focused. I have to dedicate more time to cross training too! I'm excited to see how this race and the training goes.
I'm optimistic that I will reach my goal. Never in a million years would I have thought I'd be registering for races that are longer than a 5k. But, now I can't help myself - I am addicted to crossing the finish line!
