Get ready for the Get Fit 5k

The Get Fit 5k on Saturday, June 26th, will be a great opportunity for runners and walkers of all levels.  If you start today, you will have just under 6 weeks to get ready for the 5k.  You can run (or walk) your first 5k on June 26th, even if you don't run at all today.

Click here for "a basic 5K [training] schedule that assumes you don't run at all yet, and is designed to get you round comfortably, probably with a few short walk breaks."  You start with alternating running for a minute with walking for a minute.  By the time the Get Fit 5k rolls around, you'll be ready to go.

*As with all new exercise programs, check with your doctor before beginning if you have any health concerns.*
