Working towards a goal...

My DDD (degenerative disc disease) currently prevents me from running...I hate that! I hope one day I can be cleared to run again. But this year is the 2nd Annual Brett's Run, in Genoa. Its a 5k (3.1 miles) I'm going to register to walk it. Any takers on walking it with me? It'll be in June, right around the time of Genoa Days. I'm going to start training now, to walk it real quick. The Army standard for a female of 22-26 years of age to walk 2.5 miles is 37:30. My goal is to be around that time frame for the 3.1 mile walk. That gives me just about 12 minutes per mile. I think that is def. an attainable goal. Wish me luck, better yet, anyone wish to join me? Even if you run it?
