August 11, 200917 yr Is anyone signed up for the Run Kings Island event this sunday? I am signed up for the Diamondback 5K.
August 11, 200917 yr I was going to but now that XC has officially started I can't, oh well have fun!
August 12, 200917 yr I'm doing the 10K with my sister in-law. Driving down from Indy on Saturday. Can't wait!
August 12, 200917 yr Rachel and I were considering walking the 5k, but I doubt we're going to wind up doing it though. But good luck to you, HTCO, and to anyone else who is running in the 5k/10k.
August 12, 200917 yr Author Gah. Neither have I. Iv'e only been running 2 miles a day. I'm going to die sunday.
August 12, 200917 yr if i was participating. i should learn to walk first, lol {refering to stricker's incedent}
August 12, 200917 yr I'm doing the 10K, simply because it has the most interesting route. I'll be walking almost the entire thing, so I'm not going to be training a ton.
August 12, 200917 yr I'm in the 5K, but I haven't trained worth a darn. Gah. Neither have I. Iv'e only been running 2 miles a day. I'm going to die sunday. Haha yeah as HTCO said I will be running with him in the 5k on sunday(well....like a mile behind him...haha). But, I havnt trained really at all. I have started running around my neighborhood's lake which is like 2 - 2.5 miles around....so yeah
August 13, 200917 yr Alright, after walking a distance similar to what a 10K would be like, I have changed my mind, and I will be walking the 5K on Sunday. Anyone else doing it?
August 13, 200917 yr ^ wait. Didnt u have to sign up for a specific race??? i thought so... because i did. but, maybe its different for the walkers.....idk...haha.
August 13, 200917 yr I really wish there was a day of registration I won't know til Saturday afternoon if I can even go since i'm playing in the MDA softball tourney for Jerry's Kids all this week/weekend. and it all depends on the bracket but i did plan on walking the 5k... we'll see. and for those wondering 5k=3.1 miles, and 10k=6.2 miles lol
August 13, 200917 yr And here I thought 10k was 200,000 nickels! That's the kind of 10K I wouldn't mind
August 13, 200917 yr Author Beast1979 if you signed up for The Beast 10K I'm almost certian you can not switch. Unless you pay 30 more bucks for the Diamondback 5K. I would just walk it. I'm pretty sure you can do it. Considering I run about 8 every practice, I think you could walk about 6.2.
August 13, 200917 yr Well we haven't registered yet. Now looking at the route for the 5K I'm on the fence here. 10K is harder but it has the best route. 5K's route is rather uninteresting.
August 13, 200917 yr If you're walking, I'd do the 10k for sure. The 5k looks to be almost half in the parking lot, which is rather boring.
August 13, 200917 yr well, yeah if i was gonna do the best route, its definately the 10k, but im going to try and run or at least jog the entire thing.....soo...the 5k is a better call for me.
August 13, 200917 yr Last I checked, there were about 800 people on the registration lists, but that may not be up to date.
August 13, 200917 yr Author ^ Its not up to date. I had to call the lady that took care of our check, because we saw the check went through and my name wasn't on that list. She said they have had so many people sign up they don't have time to update the list.
August 15, 200917 yr ^haha im excited too! i liked all the stuff that I got. Haha but the race will not really effect the crowd at the park, considering the 5k is at 7:15, the 10k is at 7:00, and the golden ticket run thingy is sometime around those, ahha
