A Goal to Shoot For?

I’m trying to decide on a realistic goal to shoot for as I work to get back in shape. Yes, I said “back in”. Obviously I’m not in shape today so I need a target to shoot for. Running is fun, but it does get boring and that is when I will loose interest and stop doing it. Maybe I could shoot for completing a 5K by the end of the summer.

5K is 3.1 miles and the best atheletes complete the run in 15 minutes. Let’s be realistic….I think I could shoot for 30 minutes which would be a steady 10 minute mile. I know I wouldn’t win but I shouldn’t be completely laughed at.

5k, get in shape, goal, Running
