Sunday, October 22, 2023 - 5K Run

After the past few weekends, Tiffany and I included prep runs for the upcoming running events we are signed up for, the first one of the those running events was today.

We participated in the 6th annual 2023 Bears Who Care OktoBEARfest 5K Fun Run & Walk today. The event's proceeds support the Bears Who Care charity, a 501(c)(3) organization, which provides teddy bears and books to disadvantaged or ill children.

Today allowed us to add two more medals to our collection:

I also had my best 5K running time since before the pandemic.

I was damn proud to finish the 5K in 26.55.8 minutes:

I was a putrid 30 minutes plus for over two years and now I'm back to my old self with today's time.

We have a 10K running event coming up in two weeks and I have to gut that one out and hopefully finish it in an hour or close to it if I go past the hour.

Tomorrow, on the very very very rare occasion I will be taking off from working out on a Monday.

The reason?

On Tuesday, the Orangetheory Fitness HELL WEEK Series begins and Tiffany and I will be participating in it for the ninth year in a row.

The challenge is to do 4 out of 8 of those Hell Week workouts, but Tiffany and I will have none of that - we do ALL eight days straight.

Let's FUC#ING Go!
