Strides for Students

So well before leaving for Canada, I signed up for this 5K called Strides for Students that my friend over at I’m Running on Fumes puts together. I signed up to do this one alone since I’d have to cancel if we didn’t make it back from Canada in time. We made it back. So I went to this one solo, which is all fine and good. But at the starting line a few minutes before it started, out pops an old high school friend from the crowd !!  I love running into old friends like that. The shirt she is wearing is the cool shirts we got. I’ve got my trusty comfy good breathing Chesney shirt on. I don’t know what the material (can’t read tag anymore) is but I need to find more like it. Or else I’m going to have to attend another concert. Which wouldn’t be all bad I guess. 

Anyway, this race is in Morrison, IL at Rockwood State Park. It’s one of the prettier nicer courses I’ve done. Tree’s came over the road to shade most of it. Looped through a nice clean campground area.
