Suck it up and run

Unless I had a major scheduling conflict I'd probably just go run it and do a long warmup and long cooldown. A 5K race is one of the best all around workouts there is--how can that not fit into your training?

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

Another vote for volunteering.

Run. You'll probably get your picture in the paper.

I never pass up a local 5k. Probably 75% of the t-shirts I get at races are things I would never wear unless I'm cutting my grass or painting in them....I don't run for the shirts. As far as the 11 year olds, hey, the more people I pass the better, 11 years old or not. And yeah if you don't run, go volunteer. You owe it to all the people who let you run in the races you are interested in.
