Races, a lot of races in the next 14 days

The last few days have been kickboxing classes with a large amount of various extras at either the half way point or near the end of the session.

My legs were a bit sore from the 4 miles I ran/jogged on Wednesday but my feet have been feeling so much better in these new Brooks I picked up last weekend.  What a difference they seem to be making - which is great.

Really looking forward to the Beach Dash tomorrow over at Montrose Harbor there are about 15-20 of us going, so it will be a fun afternoon. 

Then on Thursday July 19th I have a 5k that is the second race of the local park district series here in Joliet. 

I am considering signing up for the Rock and Roll Mini Marathon on Sunday July 22nd but not sure yet, as I then have the Hero Rush event on the 28th.  That would be four races in 14 days! So may or may not happen.

Some (including me) my think that is a bit overboard, but at least my weekends are filled up with active events and races this summer - unlike any other summer of my life before this!  And I am loving every minute of it - even the tough, hot, painful ones :)  Plus a well adorned medal hanger isn’t such a bad thing either!
