Most of my posts are a few scrolls long, so I’ll keep this recap short:

• Woke up at 5am on my 23rd birthday to watch the sunrise and drink some coffee while I prepped for my run

• Got to the race, made a few new friends who I learned were running for different causes that were important to them, like autism research, stem cell research, etc. (I was running for Make a Wish)

• Completed the 5k in ~28 minutes, which was only because a good portion of the race was actually downhill lol

• a grandma passed me up

• But I still finished the race and felt accomplished as HECK and felt a little better about myself for turning 23 and at least doing one little thing to help raise money for someone who needed it.
