My goal is to be able to run a 5K by 9-17-06, so I can complete a sprint triathlon then.

I sent my running coach an e-mail and told him that no matter what we have to do, I will run a 5K by then. I am willing to put in the time and energy to reach that goal.

I simply REFUSE to let a whole season go by only completing one triathlon. I have been losing my motivation and getting all antsy because I can't put races on my calendar.

Plus, I think this will get him to really push me to get my form together so I can start running more.

At least I have something to look forward to now! YES!
