Bread Crumbs

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since I've had the time to sit down and write a little. My babies are keeping me busy lately, but I wanted to give everyone an update on the 5K I ran back in February. If you read my previous post then you know it was The Runner Awakens Run that I participated in. If you didn't read the first post, click here . This was my first time using Level Up Virtual Runs and it won't be the last. The process to register was very simple and straightforward. There price point is also really great. As a stay-at-home mom I cannot afford a lot of races because they can get pricey. This race was $25 for the 5K and then increased by $5 for every distance up until the Half-Marathon. I ended up running with my local Moms Run This Town chapter on one of the Saturday runs, which kept me very motivated to keep going. It was also nice to be without the kids for a bit and with my friends. I wasn't really happy with my time, but I did just have another b...

The last few weeks have been really great for me and the blog! Yet again, I am really excited to share about this great company. Level Up Virtual Runs was created by two brothers who love running as well as the cool metals and swag that comes along with races :) They not only wanted to create an alternative way for runners to run races, but also give back to schools who may not be able to afford there sport programs.  First off, for those that do not know what a virtual race is, lets start there. A virtual race is a race you can ran anywhere at anytime. You can run it outside, inside, you can walk it, and even run it while running another race. You can run the race at your own pace as well. Another great aspect of the virtual race is that anyone can participate. I am really excited for the next race, which runs from February 15th to the 29th because it's Star Wars related!!
