ATTENTION SCOUTS!!
So you think you can outrun an OLD GOAT???
Run with me and find out!
I was thinking of a way to not put extra weight on over the holidays and to get those in my Personal Fitness merit badge class motivated in this off-season for sports and I came up with this.
I am planning on running in the Cary Road Race April 12, 2008 (5K).
This leaves at least 5 months for training to build up for the Cary Road Race.
It would help all of you increase your endurance, speed and decrease stress, whether you choose to walk the 5k or run it. Here are some websites with great information on how to get started along with some nutritional information.
I sincerely hope that you and your family choose to participate in one or more of the programs below, it is within reach and the best gift you can give yourself and your family!

THE GET-STARTED PLAN
With the Get-Started Plan, you'll ease your way into a regular walking routine.
http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-380-381-386-1690-0,00.html
Choose this beginning-level program if any of the following applies:
- You're
severely overweight.
- You're
recovering from illness or surgery.
- You
have a chronic health problem that limits activity.
- You
devote less than 60 minutes a day to"active" tasks like walking
the dog, chasing after kids, or putting out the garbage.
- You
spend your days sitting at a desk or in your car and your evenings
lounging on the couch.
8 WEEKS TO YOUR FIRST 5-K
Take your walking to a new level with our step-by-step training plan.
