Should I sign up for race for life 5k?!

[RBB99]

Hi all, I'm in week 3 of training plan & didn't really enjoy week 2. My friend has just asked if I want to do a race for life 5k in June which would be the Sunday of my 9th week. Do you think I should just go for it and sign myself up for the challenge or see how I get on over the next couple of weeks?

Go on

I've signed up something to aim towards!

Go you

[Jacks66]

Yes definitely. It gives you something to aim for. It isn't about the run as you can walk it too. In fact lots do walk it and it's all in aid of a good cause.

Yes do it!

I'm doing one in less than 2 weeks! The atmosphere is amazing and it's for a really good cause!

You can crawl. walk, jog or run up to you!

Thanks! I've signed up and doing it with a friend struggling to get back into running like me. W3R1 tonight!

Or hop Or Hop, skip and jump... I think that may be the way I will go

[Dexy5 Graduate]

Go for it. Race 4 life is a great experience even for walkers. Please believe me when I say that if you stick to the C25k program you will achieve the aim and will start to look forward to the next run.

Thanks. Just got back from run 1 of week 3. It hurt so much but happy I finished it!

[Amandana]

Do it!
