Train with me! For the Colorado Springs Grand Prix 2007
I’m going to do the long series of the Colorado Springs Grand Prix this year. Here’s the schedule:
The Grand Prix of Running consists of a Series of 4 races of various distances and held in different areas of our community. The first race is in March and the last scheduled race is in July.
| Date | Start Time | Race | Distance (long/short) | Location |
| March 17 | 10:00am | 5K on St. Patrick’s Day | 5K | Downtown Colo Spgs |
| May 5 | 8:00am | Take 5 in the Garden | 5K/5 Mile | Garden of the Gods |
| June 16 | 7:00am | Sailin’Shoes | 5K/10K | Downtown Colo Spgs |
| July 28 | 7:00am | Classic 10K | 10K | Pikes Peak Greenway |
I haven’t been training much this month due to weather and motivation problems, but am trying to get back into it for training. Remember that last February I started running just 1 mile. – and somehow worked my way up to 13.1 miles by December.
So! Pick a race for your goal and we can work on it together. You don’t even have to run the entire distance. We’ll start with a walk/run regimen to get you going. If you need someone to walk/run with, I can fit running in most mornings between 8:30 – 10:00 AM.

It’s 13 weeks until the St Patrick’s Day 5K if you start this week. Just walk/run 15/20 minutes of walk/run 2-3 times this week. You can do it!
Pregnant mamas can still walk at a comfortable pace, too. 15 minutes is good for you.
Helping others can help me get back on track. I need help in the motivation dept. I logged 82.81 miles in December, and so far this month, I’ve only run 17.41 miles. I used to do that in a week!
