Today starts a month long virtual event for the WorldWide WordPress 5k 2020, organized by some of my colleagues. On top of getting out active with others, virtually, there is also a cool charity aspect where you can donate and have a matching donation made. Checkout the post linked above for more details.
I’ve slacked off with my running lately, though have been getting out with Oakley some. This is a good push for me to get going again. To participate you only need to do it once during the month, but I’m going to see how many 5k’s I can get in and started today.
It wasn’t a great start. I’ve been up since 4am because of a wind and rain storm that has come through and knocked out our power. I wasn’t able to get back to sleep after that. Luckily the power came back on, but the weather still hasn’t been nice. The wind made it rough to run while going right into it, I had to take my hat off after the first lap so I didn’t lose it. The rain belted me in the face and made it hard to see. In the end I was soaked, but I got it done.
This likely won’t be the worst weather I face this month, so I guess it is good practice to start getting used to running in less than ideal circumstances.

Ha, we should totally have “the worst wwwp5k weather” category! Congratulations!

Good for you, Sandy! I’m always very impressed with people who push themselves like you’re doing. I could learn from you!

That’s hard-core running with the wwwp5k shirt. ❤️ I can’t since it’s partly made of cotton, but it is so beautiful that I’m tempted to do it! 😄

Yeah I kind of thought it was going to be a running shirt. But it’s cold out anyway so I wore it overtop of a long sleeve running shirt.

That’s what I plan to do, too! 🙌🏼

Days 23 & 24
Combined two days into one run. Start running at 11:30pm so that I did 5K on the 23rd and 5K on the 24th. Didn’t work out exactly like that, but I’m making my own rules so it counts.
