Running a 5k

For the third year in a row, my kids and I have run the Pelican Lakes Turkey Trot in Windsor, CO. This year, it was cold, but not snowy.

Both my daughter and I won 3rd place in our age divisions, and our prize was a pie.

It was fun, and I like the course. Proceeds go to Athletes in Tandem, an organization dedicated to helping athletes of all abilities participate in athletic events.

CrossFit 5k

Yesterday, I won a 5k.

I came in 4th overall and 1st place for adult women.

I was pretty happy with my time.  It was a course of hills, but I felt the best I’ve felt running in months.

It was for a good cause and afterwards the kids jumped in blow-up castles and collected free gear.  The weather was cold but my competitive spirit warmed my heart!
