Roxbury 5K

On Monday, June 14, 2022 I ran in the Annual Roxbury 5K.

I was excited to be able to run this race, the temperature was a bit warm, it was 84 degrees at the 7:00 pm start of the race.

There were about 200 people racing. I placed 121 out of the 200 people racing. I was 7th out of 8 in my age group. My time was 39:43:74 which is 12:47 per mile.

My placement or even my pace is not the thing I concentrate on or try not to concentrate on that.

I am thrilled that I can run and am happy that I started running about 10 or 11 years ago. It is just so wonderful to get out there and run 3 or 4 miles every morning or most mornings… I ran 4 miles this morning.

Any movement you can do helps you physically and mentally….

The day after the race we drove to Roanoke Virginia to visit Greg, Joann and Zoey. We had a very nice time with them and Zoey is adorable and so enthusiastic to learn and also to play. She has a great imagination. We took her to the park to ride her bike.
