August 31, Worldwide 10K, R U In? Mean sister says I am!

[ActiveMSers]

My littlest sister Kathryn is a huge runner and wants me to participate in the Human Race 10K. There are 25 main sites around the world, but there are a ton of satellite races in places like Albuquerque. (Google "Human Race 10K YOURCITY") to see if your home town is having one.

Okay, so I can't run. Or jog. But with trekking poles I can walk pretty darn far. 6 miles? I think I can do that. Should I go for it? Any of you guys crazy enough to join me?

I am definitely doing it.

I hope you will try. You won't know how it goes until you try. I just know you can do it!

Good luck!

Dave, did you do the run?

We did and had a blast.

Alas, my sis (the only runner in the family) was injured. So we did family stuff instead. Felt I shouldn't leave for a potentially 3+ hour 10K while the 'rents were in town for Labor Day weekend. But I still want to give a 10K a go and show my runner sis what I can do!

I'm sorry that she was injured. Hopefully, she will be fine soon. I'm getting over an IT band injury now. I can run through it, but it's not a lot of fun.

That would be a great goal for you to do a 10K!
