About two weeks ago, I spontaneously decided to sign up for a 5k at a vineyard. I thought “hey, I’ve been running pretty consistently and you get a glass of wine and chocolate once you finish why not?”. I asked my dad if he wanted to join me and do it together. He’s generally active but had taken a break from running due to injury. He agreed! So we both made sure to take the past two weeks seriously and prepare as much as possible. Little did I know how many hills this course had and that it apparently is one of their hardest courses.... My goal was to finish strong and run hard. We get to race day and it is chilly and raining.. but still I did not let it bring my vibes down. It was hard, but we didn’t give up!!!! I crossed the finish line and waited for my dad to cheer him on. We gave it our all and kicked ass.He even placed third in his age group!!!! I’m so proud and so grateful I get to live this life in a positive, healthy way that is strongly supported by those around me. Hope everyone had a great Sunday!
