Tall Mom's Virtual 5K

I was planning on biking after school and then doing a short run-off the bike this afternoon when I remembered that I "registered" for Tall Mom's Virtual 5K!

With the weather being in the 50's, wet, and extremely windy, I opted to do this run on the treadmill. My spring allergies will thank me for this later.

There was nothing special about this run, unfortunately. It was hot and stuffy in the gym, I was over dressed, and I have been dealing with a lot of muscle cramps lately.

It was a very very slow run with lots of walking. But, I conquered and now it's time to move on!

Thanks Tall Mom for putting together the virtual 5K! And for a good cause!

Man i hate when it's hot at the gym. Sorry you didn't have the best run but at least it's over, right? Have you been foam rolling to help the muscle cramps?

I should do the 5K right now on the 'mill...but I'm being a good teacher and grading (OK...I'm not that good because I'm reading blogs, but this is just a little break...I promise!)

Good job getting it done! I participated too and had 80 degrees and sunny for the weather which felt just as tough. Somehow we skipped spring weather this week.

I forgot about it until the last minute too. I'm glad I did it though. Funny, I didn't see you at the starting line. :) lol!
