With everything going on with my farther over the past couple of weeks, I’m excited to do something that brings me joy…Yep! You know what that is…Running Races… Who would have known that I’ll be saying that running brings me joy? My Alma Mater, Central Michigan University Homecoming happened to be over the weekend, while visiting my family. So decide I that will run the homecoming race to release some steam. It felt good to get out there and run, on top of that it was for a good cause… All of the proceeds went to the Special Olympics.

Miles for Medals 5K Race

This is my forth 5K and my second 5K in two weeks; speaking of that I need to post the recap of the Hartford Marathon 5K. This race gave me a chance to clear my mind and most importantly run. It was good to see some classmates cheer for me; especially the ones who don’t read my blog and think that I was lying when I said I came to the homecoming to run the race.

The 5K went well and it was a little tough…I think it was because I haven’t ran since the last 5K. I manage to finish the race with a time of 36:38.8, which was better than Hartford Marathon 5K. The thing that has been bothering me is that after the race I’m usually pooped. I’ll finish the race, I eat then sleep…which I found odd because I’ll run 4-5 miles before I’ll go to school and be OK but after a race I’m done…does anybody else experience this or is it just me? Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.

Until Next Time I’m 300 Pounds and Running
