Remember last month when I decided on a Sunday to run a 10k the following Saturday? And then I actually did it? Well... this time I decided on a Wednesday to run a 10k the next Saturday... so instead of six days notice I am giving myself ten days notice... that's progress, right?

US Road Running Dog Lover Day Virtual Run

US Road Running is an amazing running site which hosts all types of events - from Virtual Races (Virtual 5K, Virtual 10K, Virtual Half Marathon), Goal Programs, Mileage Programs, and a number of Live Races. Their goal of encouraging people to Get Out and Run ® has inspired thousands of people to get off the couch for some impressive bling. They even have a new Virtual Cycling Series that you can earn bling for too... how cool is that?!

This week one of my Sweat Sisterz posted that she wanted to do her first 10k and being that she is a Pet Sitter here in Pensacola, what better one to start with than the Dog Lover 10k!? So next weekend we will all be meeting up at the crack of dawn to take to the streets of my neighborhood to cheer each other on! And the cool thing is - you can join us too from wherever you are! All you have to do is register yourself and then run and log a 5, 10k, OR half marathon (13.1 miles) between now and Sunday June 28th!

I am super excited to not only do another 10k - and get another bit of bling - but to do it with some of the best ladies in the world! Watch us on Periscope next week and come along with us for the run! And if you choose to do it too, let me know! We can cheer you on too!

    The virtual runs look fun, but I can't do without the rush of the crowd around me - I always get a better time!

    We have an annual Mutt Strut race here where we live. We've done it a few times - running with the dog keeps us motivated.

    This is a really neat idea. I can't really run with my asthma, but I could always walk.

    You are a rock star! Motivation is definitely key to overall health and there is a certain strength in numbers which helps too.

    Sounds like a fabulous idea. Any bit of "progress" is a step in the right direction is my opinion! 🙂

    Bravo to all the runners of the world, but I am just not one of them. I'll spend hours in a gym before I'll go for a run.

    What a great event. I loved doing 5k. I really want to get back to doing them again. Even though I walk more than I run.

    I love it. Running in a 10k is one of my goals for this year. I still have a long way to go and the year's half over!

    I used to be a runner when I was in a high school. Now I am more a side line observer.

    Love the idea of staying in shape through running. Wasn't totally sure what a 'virtual 5K' is? Is that doing it on your own instead of with an organized race?

    My back and my knees aren't in a condition for me to do distance running yet, but I hope you have a fun and successful run!

    I'm super impressed with anyone who can run this far not being chased by something, like a bear or a zombie. I already follow you on Periscope, so I'll follow along, from my couch.

    I have always wanted to do a run. I should see if there is a run coming up near me that i could try walking in. I will have to get in better shape before i try to run one.

    That sounds like so much fun. I always wanted to do a 5K but haven't started my running yet. One day I'll get it done and then maybe I can get my Gemma in a race with me

    I had no idea you could do a virtual run! I have a few 5K's under my belt but I think running a 10K is amazing! Good luck on your run tomorrow! Thanks so much for sharing at Dream. Create. Inspire. Link!
