GROUP 5K RUN

How about we shoot for a fall 5K run and get as many of us as possible involved? Fall gives me the time I need to condition so that I can actually do the run - and enough heads up for us all to get involved. What do you say? Good morning and good day to all - make it a great one! M.

This is one of the coolest races in the state, because it has a HUGE range of events. There's a marathon, half marathon, TEAM RELAY and 5K. The course is gorgeous. and check out the team info. If we aren't ready this year for the longer (~ 6mile) distances, we could do the shorter 5k and train for next year! (Gosh, can you tell how goal oriented I am? Slightly compulsive, perhaps... ) Cheers! Carole Team Relay Distances The Marathon Team Relay is run simultaneously with the United Technologies Greater Hartford Marathon on the same course.

I'll join next year and do a 5K walk. That is one of my goals. To be able to do a 5K walk sometime next year. That and to fit into some rides at Six Flags. I Love coasters and my big ole butt has kept me from riding for years.

I am there!! I just ran the race in the park today for breast cancer. It was my first 5k ever and I did it in 39:59, which for me was Great!!! I would love to run with you guys, it will be a great reason to get together! Let me know, Tracy
