It is the Harry Rosen Spring Run-Off 5k and takes place at High Park in Toronto, Canada. It's a good challenge as the course ends with a deadly hill - nothing my Hill Runner programs can't handle (lol).
Anyways, I wanted to declare to you that my goal is to run this 5k race in 17:30! This is close to what the winner finished in last year. I have no doubt in my mind that I will accomplish this because I love short, fast runs, and the training that leads up to them.
I will keep you up to date on my progress.
I am currently on week 2 of the advanced version of my 12-week 5k Training Program and so far I've surprised even myself.
More importantly though I'm compiling a team (under my company Total Wellness Consulting) with the goal of raising over $25,000 for prostate cancer research. This is an amazingly exciting feat and I know we'll accomplish it. It's been said that almost all men will develop prostate cancer if they simply live long enough. I know my grandfather did. It's definitely a worthwhile cause.
If you would like to donate and support our mission, then please check back into the blog over the next few weeks for more information on how to do so. Your support would be greatly appreciated.
Until soon,
Yuri
