Coming This Saturday: My First "Real" Race as a "Grown-up"!

I picked up my race packet and shirt earlier tonight. So now, it's official. I've entered my first "real" race as a "grown-up". On Saturday, I will be participating in the Nike+ Human Race 10K.

I'm not going for any speed records, but it should be interesting to see how I do time-wise. I know I can walk 10K easily, since I completed the AIDS Walk back in May in about 2 1/2 hours, and that on streets and with stopping to take pictures of a bazillion things along the way. I've been averaging between 14.5-15 minutes per mile, so I figure I'll finish somewhere around the hour and a half mark, give or take a few.

This should be interesting...
