Luckython 2013

A few months ago I won two free race entries through a facebook promotion! Not only did we get free entries, we even got free race shirts, metals, and potatoes from the potato bar after the race. The best part? It was an evening race! While I really do love races, getting up before a 8:00am (let's be honest...getting up before 10:00) and driving for an hour to RUN is not high on my list of ways to spend a Saturday.




Like my other Uberthons races, they let everyone go in groups of 5-10 people to help ensure everyone has space out on the course. This race was on a golf course with a five foot path so it was especially nice here to have everyone spaced out and not tripping over each other. 


 What started as a sprinkle gradually turned into a downpour and we were soaked. I was one of the few excited for the rain. Out of all of the races I have participated in, I have never done one in anything more then a few drops at the end and I was excited to be able to experience this. 


I am a little disappointed this picture came out blurry, but I still love it. My first race in the rain and race in 2013 and his first race. Hopefully more to come =)


Soaked immediately after the race. 


A little drier and less hungry after enjoying the warm tent and potato bar. 



It was a cold, windy, wet, but also very fun day. My last race was in September and the one before that in May so I am happy to have ran another race and hope to get back to running one every month. One of my sisters has expressed interest in running a race this summer, anyone else want to walk/jog/run one?
