Last weekend, if you had seen me in the morning, you would have never known it was a race day. I slept in until 7, got up and showered, and even dried my hair. Then, with the unseasonably cool weather, I put on a long sleeved shirt, a sweatshirt and … jeans.
Yes, I just said jeans.
Ok, so let’s set the record straight before I go any further. I wasn’t so much “racing” this event, as I was participating in it with family. See, we had all registered together for this race earlier in the spring with the intention of most of us running (and a few walking with strollers at the back of the pack). And then, something terrible happened and … well, let’s just say cancer sucks.
So, like all good families do, when race day arrived – we decided to pull together and walk this race as a team instead. Regardless of the situation, we were just going to have fun.
