I ran the Rocky Horror Trail 10k race, which was held in less-than-ideal weather conditions, with rain that made the already rocky terrain quite slippery. Despite the conditions, the atmosphere was incredibly fun, and everyone welcomed the challenge. We encouraged each other, shared a few laughs, and celebrated the small victories along the way. In the end, crossing that finish line felt like a significant accomplishment. It was a reminder that sometimes the best races are the ones that throw unexpected obstacles your way.
