I Did It

I registered for the NYD5K - the first race of the 2009 season. It's a 5K, which is the shortest race you can run ... but as a person who hasn't run (or even walked fast) in months it still seems like a daunting distance. The benefit of doing these Chicago runs is that a portion of proceeds always goes to charity. In this case, the beneficiary is the Lake View Citizens' Council, a non-profit neighborhood organization. So at least if I chicken out, my money doesnt go to waste :)
