Have you set a goal? Picked out a race?

Have you set a goal?  Picked out a race? 
I'm really excited to get started with my training (famous last words) maybe that's what gave me (someone who said she rarely does 5Ks anymore) the idea to sign up for three 5K races this week ha ha

April 20th The River Edge 5K
http://bestrace.com/riveredgerun/ 
I do this race because I teach in town and it's great for me to run through the neighborhoods where my students live and see signs for  me along the route.  I also love this race because it makes me laugh that a run (and a fun run for kids) is sponsored by McDonalds and Total Wine ha ha

April 27th Susan Susan Zabransky Hughes Memorial 5K  http://www.hackensackumcfoundation.org/site/PageNavigator/2012_5k_run.html 
This run benefits HackensackUMC Foundation to fund Susan’s Suite - a dedicated 10-bed suite for cancer patients in the soon-to-be renovated Emergency & Trauma Center at HackensackUMC. Susan’s Suite will provide the specialized care so vital to patients with all types of cancer in an emergency. 
In addition to teaching, I waitress and our restaurant is competing against another...Competitive Kelly can't say no to a challenge ha ha .  I'm excited to do this race with so many of my friends who will be running their 1st 5K....maybe the running bug will bite them! 

July 21st Color Me Rad

I had heard about these runs where they throw colored cornstarch at you as you run....I had to do it!
