Back in April 2002, some friends and I participated in the L.A. Kings “Hockey Fights Cancer” 5K Run. It was pretty fun. We got to run(or in my case…walk/jog) through the streets of downtown LA. After the marathon(if you want to call it that) we got to see the Kings beat the Ducks. And we got a free 5K Run tshirt to boot.

Anyways, this season, we’re gonna do the 5K run again. It’s in February, so that gives me time to prepare. I hit up the gym today on my lunch break and I did 5K on the treadmill. Took me exactly 51 minutes. Not great, but I’m still happy with that. I’ve never done 51 minutes on a treadmill or stationary bike. On top of that, that’s 10 minutes quicker than when I did the 5K run back in 2002. My goal is to be able to do it somewhere in the 40-45 minute range…AND to not be so tired when I’m done. I’m going to try to hit up the gym 2-3 times a week. Discipline!
