Well I've gone and done it now!

I just signed up for my first 10K.  It also happens to be only 2 weeks after my second 8K.  I hope I haven't been too aggressive.

Nah you will do fine.

I did my first and second 1/2 marathons only 20 days apart.  The second one was much more comfortable than the first.  I had almost no discomfort after the second one.  The first one I felt like I could barely climb the stairs into my house.

Let us know how it goes for you.

I'm sure you will do fine.

Thanks for the encouraging words.  I've been working pretty hard for this (well at least for me) and I'm really excited but nervous.  I just want to finish without making a fool out of myself!

Yes, please let us know how it goes. Congratulations on your runs...

You'll do great! Last year, at 11 months post-op, I gave myself a challenge of 2 half marathons in 2 weeks. I felt good for both, the first run I ran in 1:51:38 and the second in 1:51:17. With enough run training, your body learns how to recover faster from it.

You'll do great! Congrats on setting such great goals for yourself. Can't wait to read the race reports.

Yeah like everyone said you will be fine. Last October I ran 76 Miles in 19 hours and 3 weeks later finished  Ironman Arizona.... You will do awesome!

Thanks for your support everyone!  It's greatly appreciated!
