run a 5k
Signed up! 7 months ago

So, this isn’t my first 5K, but it’s the first one in a while (almost 2 years), and it’s the first that I’m actually actively training for. I’m on Week 3 of my training, and I am feeling stronger than I have in quite a while.

Also, I recently had a birthday, and for my birthday I asked my parents to register me for a local charity run here in Chicago, The Ravenswood Run. It gives me just enough time to finish my training, and I’m so excited!
