I see that you spotted me a freebie assumption that I can even run a 5K, which I think is charitable and for which I am grateful :)

Training planning gears are spinning. We'll see what happens next year.

(edited: oh, and also, if you still have any other events in your calendar this year and if you're interested in experimenting with electrolyte and nutrition strategies -- I have a jar of Endurolytes and some Sustained Energy powder in my kitchen that I can totally spot you (I don't have any immediate plans for them and they should get used anyway) ... better living through chemistry!)
