"Fun" Run 5K in 99 degree weather!

Running in the heat and humidity: fun, you ask? Yes! With the promise and allure of free pizza and slush at the finish line, despite the heat, I ran an impromptu 5K last night with my neighbor Melissa.  Here is a photo of me with my biggest fans (aka- the "party crew"):

I did it to gear up for my 10K training with Danielle (and Sara --- yes, Sara, you ARE doing it with us!) and to continue the momentum of getting back on track.  Also, to prepare for my beatings from my own personal "Jillian", my sister Gina! (She is threatening to post a "before" bikini photo of me online.  If that isn't motivation I don't know what is!)

Getting back to the 5K thing, Melissa and I have searched the neighborhood for 5K's offering good, free food at the finish line, and so far our favorite find is the "On the Border" run in Woburn.  Free tacos and margaritas!! Hell ya! I think this run is every Tuesday night in Woburn.   Email me or leave a comment if you are interested in joining us!

Cheers!
