And another 5k completed...
After a huge week, both work wise and personal matters to handle, I found myself waking up this morning at 7am going.......arrrrrgh got to go do a 5km this morning in the rain....
A few months ago I was approached by my boss concerning a run in Rosemere that helped raise money for Juvenile diabetes. She told me to get as many employees to do this race as possible...little did I know I would be able to convince others to run this thing with me....after months of hassling everyone, I got a healthy number of participants.
The race was great! The weather was awful and my time was also. 29:30. The last 400m I took off like Jay Garrick (for u cool people!) and sprinted to the finish line, passing 10 people while having the time to wave to people and finish in style! To be honest with you guys I was there to have fun. Everyone did. I chatted with people along the way, prepared a wicked play-list on my iPod and was ready to do this again sometime soon. I was happy to see the people I influenced to do the race were there. It meant a lot to me. Especially 2 people in particular..... a woman who has lost 40+ the past year, quit smoking and fell in love with running and a guy who only powerlifts and never does cardio.........huge for me.
The spartan race was more of a challenge and I was a lot more excited by it, but guess what..... now that I have heard that you can win money winning the spartan race!!!! Bring it!!!
What's on the menu tmmrw???
Pull-Ups!! Do 200!
Have a good work out week!
BTW Hilarious!
Great work on all counts: getting people to join, raising the money, completing the run, supporting those around you and keeping up with your objectives...you are awesome!
