Oh man I am disappointed and excited all in the same breath.  This tavern is  having a 5k/festival on the 30th and I really want to participate because after the 5k they are going to offer Beer, hot dogs, sliders and fruit to the racers, WHAT!  I want all of those things lol and its on the weekend I will be celebrating my birthday.  So I look up what a 5k actually is and it is only a measly 3.1 miles of running and walking and if you finish in the front you can win cash!  Ok Ok now its getting serious how can I get in on this?  Could I actually do this 5k?  according to the Mayo clinic it takes about 3 months to get ready for it and get this about 3 months ago I started just running for fun but got shin splints so quit  uggh.  I thought I was training wrong and come to find out I was doing exactly what you are supposed to do, 15 seconds run 35 seconds walk, I'm a natural only I gave up because my legs hurt lol.  Oh well there is still a festival going on food, music, dunk tank, face-painting, all day raffle (for what I am not sure ;) meatball eating contest, and more (what is the more most likely beer ;)  So technically I can bring the kids too which is always a big plus.  Ok bring it on Bardog lets see what you got.
