The Army 10-Miler is Sunday morning.

I am running it for myself, of course, as part of my training...and for Col K, who can't be there this year...and for all those who serve our country....

If you'd like to hang out with the crowds and see 26,000 of us wearing bibs run by (I'll be in the 2nd start wave), the race starts at the west side of the

Yup I'll be there to cheer you on!

[velvet_c]

Thanks--I'm so glad you'll be there!

I'm gonna meet up with asa101 and the_smith_e and cheer you on!

My plan is to run it next year and do the marathon the year after... so you can help keep me motivated!

[velvet_c]

Awesome! I'm so glad you'll be there! Y'all can party in the room while I take a much-needed shower afterwards. LOL

Go go go! IM proud of you!!!!!!!!!!

[velvet_c]

Yay! Thanks!

I won't be there, but I'll be rooting for you! What time do you start?

[velvet_c]

Thanks!

Start for my group is 8:10. We have to pass the Mile 5 marker by 9:35, or we have to bypass the rest of the race and head to the finish line. As long as I can get my first 5 miles in at a reasonable pace, I'll be okay even if I have to walk part of it.

[citabria]

You can definitely do that! I'll be sending determined vibes your way on Saturday morning. Go you!

I did it--in 1:57!! And I never saw the "sweepers" (the bus at the end).
