Good luck,
@karentravers
! Don't start out too fast (rookie mistake.) Think of it as a 7 mile warm up to a really hard 3 mile race. If you follow that plan, you'll be golden. Let me know how it goes.
👟 For the first time,
@IBXRun10
will be run in April. And, that isn't the only change coming to the 2023 10-mile dash down Broad Street in Philly.
