I managed to run/walk the 5K and still (a) live to tell about it, and (b) finish it *just* under my preset time goal. Not super fast, but not horrendously bad. I'm contemplating running other races - but that's not to say I enjoyed it. First off, running outside is not nearly as easy as hitting the treadmill. Secondly, I'm not really motivated by the whole timing aspect - I really don't care if people beat me, or if I make a certain time. I have very few competitive bones in my body, so I couldn't even really make a mind game of it.
If any runners out there have suggestions, I'm all ears. Maybe from now on, I'll just use the elliptical.
