At times you haven’t any notion what you’re looking for then bam, the most effective is right in front of you. This has remedied my needs for the time being and i am away and off to a good nights sleep.

The thing about organized races that makes me a wee leery is when there’s no fundraising involved. But considering NZ is the third most obese Western country, they certainly feel it’s time to do something about. Kudos to everyone who does it regularly. (12K run? 50mile walk? Crikey.)

Congrats Jean! That’s awesome!

I ran a 5K race about a month ago, and my family, friends, and I are currently training for the Bay to Breakers in San Francisco in May, which is a 12K. I’m determined to finish it, but S.F. is known for steep hills and that scares me.

I did the Avon 3-day 50-mile walk to raise money for breast cancer research several years ago. Getting in shape was hard and took a lot of time (my husband still remembers how I needed naps after the practice walks each weekend), but I’m very glad I did it because it was for such a good cause. I only wish I’d kept up the exercise regime, so I encourage you to keep up the biking — you’ll be glad you did.

I’ve done quite a few organized walks. My daughter wants me to do a run with her, but I don’t know. We’ll have to see. I would rather bike if I had to choose.
Congratulations Jean!

Congrats Jean…I have participated in some 5K walks…but not the running part. Some were for charity and some were just community walks. I really enjoyed them…and will probably enter some more.

I think you should go for it!!

Congrats, Jean! That’s a great, healthy thing to do. I’ve never done any organized walks, races, or runs (hate running). I also like the idea of the REAL program.
