Fitness level in poor state, next race 5/19 5km Hope Run

So I DNS the Whiskey Row Marathon as I went back to Malaysia for the Offsite (May 9/10) and also the GE13 voting on 5/5. On a hind-sight, it wasn't a bad thing to happen as I would have struggled badly on the hilly race..
Training has been so scarce and fitness level dropped as a result, not to mention the additional weight put up... Gotta do something about it in the next 3 months I am here !

Coming out with my own 3-month training plan towards the River Jungle Marathon on 1 September.

So far I am here:
- 3 full marathon - AZ RnR (Jan'13), IMS AZ (Feb), Phoenix (Mar)
- 3 DNS - Desert Classic Marathon (Feb - too far and still recovering from AZ RnR), Pat's Run (post-Boston bombing scare), Whiskey Row (went home to vote GE13)..

Next run is the 5km @ Hope Run (Kiwanis Park, Tempe)

Some description:
The International/National Missing Children’s Day is observed in May of each year. It is a day to remember many thousands of small children who go missing or are innocent victims of abduction by strangers or by family members, worldwide. No matter what your run or walk speed is, come join us at the Kiwanis Park. Proceeds from this event goes to American Association for Lost Children, a non-profit organization that works for lost children.
