"the bottom might be where you start. but it doesn't have to be where you stay." I run for more than just the finish line. I run for better health. I run because I can't throat punch people. I run because I love good competition. I run to clear my head. and I run for those who can't.
I recently ran in the Rock 'n' Roll Virginia Beach 5K. I placed 220th (out of 1,522 runners), 18th in my age category, and 3rd in the state of Ohio with a time of 29 minutes, 9 seconds (a true 5K run on just 4 hours of sleep.). there was nothing like seeing the Atlantic Ocean and a lot of people cheering you on as you cross the finish line. 11 5K's down, many more to come. looking forward to improving each and every day in each and every way.
AlyssaB thanks Alyssa! and absolutely! any 5K's in your area anytime soon? I'm on vacation again from work from Saturday, September 24th through Sunday, October 2nd.
