Okay, so I know that going to Dunkin' Donuts this morning wasn't the wisest choice for breakfast, but I found out about a race they sponsor which is sanctioned so it means they have the smart chips on your shoes!
The run is called The Dunkin Run 2010 and has a fun run for kids 13 and under, a 5k race, and a 10k race. The only problem is..... This race is scheduled the day after another race I wanted to participate in and I'm not sure that's such a good idea to do two races back to back like that. The revised race schedule would look like this:
September 6 - Labor Day 5k run/walk sponsored by my credit union
September 11 - Brenda Deer Memorial 5k sponsored by the YMCA's in the are
September 12 - Dunkin Run 2010 5k/10k/kids fun run
October 4 - 17th Annual Ricky J. Parisian Pit Run 5k/10k run and 2 mile walk
I'm wondering if I shouldn't volunteer for the Brenda Deer 5k and save my strength for the Dunkin' Run the following day. As with any race, my goal will be to finish, and have a baseline for time improvement next race of that length. I am really going to have to step it up on my training if I want to get ready for the Dunkin' Run though... and I am also debating going for the 10k as a baseline for my plan to do the Pit Run 10k this year rather than the 5k like last year.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
