Putting The Plan To The Test - Early - 5KPM - Project Management For Road Racing

Well, it looks like the accumulated work for the 5KPM - Project Management for Road Racing will be put to work sooner than later. Instead of waiting until the Sunday of Labor Day weekend, the traditional day of our event, another 5k is being conducted in June. This event is a fundraiser for a local teacher who has cancer. Although I'm not on the organizing committee of this June event, two of the volunteers have already met with me and my cohort to discuss how the event is typically planned and conducted.

Having the organizational experiences mapped out through the project plan has already helped the organizers of this event. Indeed I'll continue to be a source of information when asked. And I've received an unexpected bonus. That bonus is to be able to run the Closter 5k course in an event for a time. Since 2011 I've volunteered for the event, but haven't run it in "anger" after that first one in 2010. Now I get to run the event with friends and family - and still be the volunteer for 36th running of the Closter 5k in September. It'll work out all around!
