    I'm doing a 6K and trying to shoot for about a 24:00. It will be a good indicator for how well I can do 4K when AAU Nationals come around.

    alot of schools have a pond jump. but last year the firfighters made the kids get out after a certain amount of time before they would get sick or seriously ill.
    the runners dont do it. but one year i will.. if my coach lets me..

    I just jogged mine, a hilly 5k in about 25 minutes
    There were over 1400 people on a tiny little street and I was tripped about 200m in and fell on my face lololol.
    But it was fun. Very Happy
