Well the countdown begins for the Red Shoe Shuffle 5K in Baltimore. This race benefits the Ronald McDonald House in the state of MD. Originally when I was looking for a race in Baltimore this fit the criteria of 1.) Being close 2.) Getting an under armour shirt 3.) Being a smaller local race. Now that it's approaching I'm glad that I'm not just running for a time, but the proceeds actually go towards benefiting a good cause.
The race is an out and back and loops around M&T stadium. The first half will most likely be fast due to the downhill and well all the benefits of that downhill run will be eliminated on the second half:) I mapped the course on mapmyrun.com and I don't really think this is a true 5k...but it's the first one of the season and who is counting? 6 Days, but still trying to get in all the necessary training for the MD Half, which is a month away.
Finally, today marks my first starbucks since giving it up on Ash Wednesday...I also gave up dessert. Today I went and resumed my normal routine and got one prior to work.
