She ran this same 5k last year and finished in 31 minutes. Me, not knowing anything about 5k times, said I usually run them under 29 minutes just so I could one up her. Paid $40 and signed up yesterday. The race is this Saturday. Never ran in my life. What is the best course of action? I'm 6'1, 190 lbs, probably what you would call 'skinny fat'. Can bench 185lbs 3x5, if that matters.On the plus side, we're going on a date afterwards regardless of what happens.
