I did it!!!!!!
Peace. I did it! I successfully completed a race! It was a race to support HBCU’s. Although I don’t think any money went toward any HBCU’s. I think it was just an opportunity for alumni to rep their school and do something healthy in the process. I paid $25. I got a shirt but no medal. Oh well. As with anything that our people do… It started a bit late. People were far too overdressed. And of course there was a party afterward. It was such a friends-and-family event. It looked like “old home week” in the line up. It was well attended (well over a 1000 people there) and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and plan to possibly run it again next year. Now on to the logistics…. That's my alma mater all front and center! I’m not sure if this is how it’s done, but I didn’t get the race route until the day before the race. I wish I would have known that there were true hills in the race. I don’t run hills. I don’t like hills, therefore I avoid them. Had I known there were going to be hi...
