Gearing Up for a 5k

It’s that time again! Races have started and I haven’t made it to the starting line yet.  That is all going to change on April 4th!  I will be completing my first 5k of the season and my first time pushing Hailey in the stroller.  The past few years I have participated in the Run to Resurrection on the Saturday before Easter. This is a great race because you do three laps around a quiet neighborhood in North Canton.

Apparently I am really good at avoiding the camera.  After searching through the last 3 years, I did not find one picture of me. So, this one of my mom will have to do!

If you are looking to do a 5k for the first time, then look no further!!!! The fee is practically free!! Simply bring some canned goods or small donation for the food pantry and you are entered!  There are friendly and encouraging faces during the entire race to help you get through the 3 miles (and I’ll be there).

This year, not only will I be pushing little Hailey in the jogging stroller, but I will be jogging alongside a friend of mine to help her complete her first 5k!  I’m extremely excited for her to complete this goal and I am honored that she asked me to join her!

Just a few of the encouraging banners that are at every turn!
