Well...it happened.
I ran my last race of the 2015 season and let me tell you, it was sweet.
My race was the Hot Chocolate 5k and while it was cold, it was really cool to end the season with the race that started my racing here in Chicago.
I love this race for the simple reason that it is fun and also there is a legit expo attached to it. Running and shopping? Yes please.
It was a cooler start today but I'd prefer that over humidity any day! Mike was kind enough to come down with me to be there when I was done, which was sweet but I was in a panic this morning because while I set the alarm, I forgot to turn it on *forehead slap*. We made it down there with plenty of time but for everyone who knows me...being late is not how I do things.
It has been a while since I ran this race but it was as fun as I remember it being! Halfway through the race they were handing out chocolate for an energy boost; and while that is not super great for my diet I had not eaten yet that morning so I munched it down. All I can hope is that I have no chocolate in my teeth or on my mouth for any of the photos!
And I did it in 30 minutes! 30 minutes 10 seconds to be exact but I am super happy about that time!
I should do a race wrap up about all my races, but I think that is going to wait until closer to the end of the year...
Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday- I'm just gonna chill and warm up for a bit :)
Until next time, keep running strong!
