I registered for my first (running) race this afternoon. The 7km run/walk as part of the Wellington Round the Bays in February next year.
This will be the first point that I can cross off my “Thirteen new experiences for 2013“. Exciting!
The most I have ever run at one time was 5km, and it wasn’t particularly pretty, so I’m not going to set myself a goal time or berate myself if I end up walking half of it (though I hope not!). Just finishing is my goal.
Besides, I’ll be running with workmates so I don’t want to be dead at the finish line. They’ll remind me of it for weeks afterwards. And again for the race in 2014.
Then again, maybe that’s what I need to boost me into super-Amy-goes-all-out mode. Who knows?
Good luck!
I read the title of this blog several times before I realized it was running around the BAYS not running around the BOYS…. *sigh*
Good luck in your race
There’s nothing like a 7km run around the Bay. Of course, I’m talking about Sydney. But I’m sure Wellington will be just as nice
Good luck! Kim*

Best of luck! Conquering things like this are immensely liberating. Thanks for checking out my site as well.
Good luck!
