5K to look forward to

It doesn't matter how far or how fast you go as long as you give it your best right?  That is what I often tell myself anyways.  I just signed up to take part in the ACC Championship 5K sponsored by Harris Teeter on December 1st here in Uptown Charlotte.


Now I am not so excited about the fact that it is the ACC Championship 5K but, the proceeds from the race and any other direct donations go towards the Wounded Warrior Project.  What an excellent way to give back .  Most races I sign up for I try to make it where the proceeds are going to a good cause, I consider it a small part of my way of giving back throughout the year and doing something good for myself at the same time.

 


The next race I am looking to participating in is the Hot Chocolate 5K in Atlanta, GA on January 13, 2013.  I hate that the race is not coming through Charlotte but we have family in ATL so hopefully my husband has that weekend off and we can head there that weekend so I can take part in it. 
 


I mean with a finishers mug like the one above who wouldn't want to run this 5K and better yet the charity the race is sponsoring is the Ronald McDonald House...what more reason do you need?  :)
