Resolution Run - Sherman

Resolution Run - Sherman takes place in Sherman, Texas, on January 1, 2027, with a single 5K (3.1 miles) starting at 8:00 a.m. No elevation gain is listed for the course, and there is no second distance on the schedule.

Eight in the morning on New Year's Day is an early ask, but it buys you the coldest and stillest air north Texas offers in January, which is exactly what you want if you intend to race the thing. Keep the last few days before it easy, warm up for a full 15 minutes with a few strides, and treat the opening quarter mile as pace setting rather than position taking. For a first 5K, the same warm-up applies and the plan is simpler still: run the first mile at a pace you could hold a conversation at, then see what is left.
