7 on the marathon course at 6AM with my friends.

My buddy Jonathan that I've talked about running with on here several times invited me to a 5k race this Saturday at 9AM.  His mom was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and they were charging a $5 entry fee (or more if you'd like) and donating the money to breast cancer research.  I'd say they had about 50 people participate which is great considering it was just a little race done at a friends house.  I did a run/walk combo and just had a good time visiting with some old friends.  The course was an out and back on a road that runs between 2 cotton fields.  This means no shade and rolling hills.  It was brutal!!

Great job with the 10 miles and the charity 5K. Hope you're feeling better after your illness a few days ago. And, I hope Jonathon's mom does well with her cancer treatment too.

A 5k after 7 miles! Wow.

Sorry to hear about your friend's mom. A low-key informal 5K seems like a perfect response, glad you got to participate.
