Never too early to start thinking about 2015 Have you ever run a 5k on New Year's Day? I have not, but found a Commitment Day race near me that I'm signing up for. http://www.commitmentday.com/ There are plenty of other races out there too.
Who's in for a New Year's Day 5k? We have 5 weeks to get ready!!
