It's Electric!

Last year, shortly after my 28th birthday, I decided I wanted to do 10 5K races before I turn 30. Tim and I were already signed up for the Run For Your Lives 5K in December (which was a zombie run), and I signed us up for the Turkey Trot (which was 5 miles instead of a 5K, oops) on Thanksgiving, too. We had a lot of fun at both, and on March 30, I did my third race- the Electric Run!

I ran with three other moms, and we finished in 42 minutes. It was great to run at night (mostly because it was hard to tell how badly we were sweating). The weather was perfect, and the Electric Run was untimed, so I didn't feel like we were going to be run over! There were a lot of people who were walking the whole way. We jogged for most of it, although we did take our time enjoying the different lighted areas. If they come to your city and you enjoy that kind of thing, check it out!
