Back to Racing!

This Sunday will be my first race back to running.  It is a small 5K, but I don’t care!  I am back!  I have a number in my head that I want to achieve, but that doesn’t even matter too much.  I am happy to be back in the game.  There has been too many un-run races in the last nine months and it is time for me to let it all go.  This is the first step.  I am not a sideliner any more.

I like 5Ks because they are mindless.  There is no preparation, nothing to stress over and best of all.... 100% pure fun!  Sunday’s run raises money for a local food pantry.   One day I will be able to help out a lot more than I can; in the meantime, participating in local events and coming together as a community is a very close second best.
