Hi, Barb - I would err on the side of caution. It is SO easy to get overenthusiastic and end up injured. !

I need some advice from experienced runners or other new runners, please. I started running in October 2007 following the C25K program............ My first run was a 10K on June ...... I am not a fast runner but I keep my feet moving, .......... But I need a specific goal. There's a run coming up Sept. 20 and I want to do the half-marathon event. I don't care about the speed I just want to finish, so if I walk half that would be okay with me. ........ I'm 54, turning 55 this Sept., and I am really driven to do this,........... but is it possible? Please give me your opinions. Thanks, Barb
