Spring Folly 5K {First trophy ever!} + Mother’s Day

Moonlight Madness 5K

This is one of my favorite races, and it's the one I have the longest streak running: 4 years in a row now.  In 2012, it was our first year here in North Carolina, and I ran the 1 mile fun run (only because it was cheaper), then "bandited" the 5K with my friends--don't tell on me … [Read more...]
