Operation 5K.

Hi. My name is Tracie and I am the most nonathletic person you'll ever meet.  I once was on a middle school field trip waiting for the "special ed" kid to make it to the top of the rock wall cuz I figured if he/she could, I could. And I did.  I've always been attracted to those who found that sort of drive to be fit.  I don't aim for looking good anymore. That dream flew out the window long ago when my ass decided to make an appearance and get me free drinks.  No, I wanna train for a 5K.  It's a good starting point and the truth is, I NEED A GOAL!! So far, my goal for the last year or so is to work out more.  Well, done and unmotivated.  


My current roomie is a competitive person in marathons/triathlons.  She's got some pretty awesome gear.  She's got some pretty awesome advice too on how to train for such a goal.  I don't care if I'm last just as long as I finish.  And what better way to do this than to train for one that is at home in a few months.  Let me get good and ready and I will make it.  


You can do this, Trac.  Do it!
