I am SO glad I raced this morning. It was an absolute blast getting together with our local Avon Lake Community for a good cause. hosts this annual race, where all proceeds support the ASPIRE Tutoring program to provide quality education & boost graduation rates among at-risk high school students after school education.

Fun Fact: Even if you can’t join, you can always register as a donation & what’s even better is this year, many individuals chose to do that.

I crushed my goal of “just hit a sub 21:00” with a 20:33.

It was hot in direct sunlight, but I kept one of our Breaking Through Wellness strong lady runner, Katie’s Go To Phrase in my head the whole time “Courage Over Comfort”. It really helped! If you didn’t catch it, she shared all about this in my podcast Maximizing Hormones, Physique & Running Through Perimenopause episode 100.

Plus, just remembering how hard all of the women in our Community work & wanting to make them proud helped too.

Many elements against me in theory that would have me lucky just to race with energy in the first place, from high life stress this week, very late bedtime last night so I could help my sister & a few elements adding up as a result…

Welp, my heart won over my head today, as it was a throw down with a talented 12-year-old to take first overall female & defend my title of winning this race each year. 🤣 (I’ll be back next year! 🩷)

The best part: My son raced with our neighbor & it was his first 5K ever. He had a goal to hit 30:00 & with my son’s support, he ran 24:00!!!

And my son made me so proud, as despite his competitive nature, he let his younger friend finish first so he would win his age group for his first 5K. 🥰

Not sure what I am more proud of, raising a good human or choosing to believe in myself & follow my loving heart.

Have a great Sunday all!
