5K RACE FOR RECOVERY – Jenelle Summers

Such a great cause & way to start the day!!

What’s going to push YOU today????

Neither of us trained for this & we both had grueling workouts yesterday (me, a heavy leg workout & Ty, 2 hours basketball + 2 hours neighborhood football + 2 Lacrosse games😰 !)

But last night T asked me to do this race with him today! I’ve always wanted to run a 5K with my son & I didn’t realize that would happen this morning! He told me 2 weeks ago he wanted to do this race ..but by himself.. so up til last night, I thought I’d be bundled up on the sidelines cheering him on with Matt, hot coffees in hand ☕😁.. That sounded great to me because I’ve not been able to run super hard lately due to a lingering knee injury that swells if I over-do it.👎

I’m proud of him for sticking to it this morning when I gave him every opportunity to sleep in (I felt he needed the sleep/rest & I was already SUPER sore 😆) but he kept saying ..”no I’m up! I wanna do it”. I know if he wants to be, he’ll be a great runner someday just like his dad!

And HUGE props to our neighbor Roman, who is only in 8th grade & WON the whole thing!!🏃🏆
