The Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle is a big race in Chicago. Its an 8K with 32,500 participants - and this year is the 30th year. That makes this already popular race even more popular. So popular, in fact, that registration opens on 1/1/08 and it will likely sell out fast.I have not yet figured out my 2009 plan, especially my level of commitment (if any) to running. This is an early race (March 29) which means I need to do my training in the wonderful Chicago Winter. Its only an 8K, so the training level is not intense ... but I havent run in almost a year and just had a baby. Perhaps training for an 8K in 3 months will actually be more than I can handle? I just sent an email out to my running friends to see what they're thinking about this race. I hope that perhaps someone else can make the decision easier for me :)

let's see... toss a coin maybe? I say if you remember running as something that you enjoyed and made you feel good..then this is a good place to start!
