My Next 5k Is Super!

Super 5k Novi 

A 5k before the big game? One of my goals in 2013 is to run a 5k in under 30 minutes. Well I decided February 2nd, on Super Bowl Sunday will be my first crack at it. The event is called Super 5k and its being held in Novi, Michigan.

31 minutes 39 seconds is the time to beat. I've been running a little bit faster the last couple weeks in hopes to improve my speed this time around. Next week I'm gonna bump it up a little more. 1 minute 40 seconds quicker and I'm there.

Bold Ass Prediction Status Update. Yesterday I predicted I'm gonna lose 2 plus pounds this week. My first day on my quest went awesome. I didn't eat any empty calories and stayed away from starchy sides.  For example tonight for dinner I had baked fish and steamed broccoli. The more weight I lose the easier it will be to run a 5k in under 30 minutes on February 2nd!

  2. I've definitely noticed the more weight I lose, the faster I run. I totally believe you can get that sub 30 on your race. As you know, that's my goal too. My first 5k is March 9. I know you can do this!!
