Bubble Run!

 We did it! We made our objective it through 2023 Bubble Run 5k in Pomona, CA! The Bubble Run was yesterday and surprisingly I am not sore or at least not yet. 

Yes it was a run and we took our time in completing it. As much as I wanted to run and be done because it was 59 DEGREES, we performed and enjoyed every step. We split into "teams", my son with me and my daughter with my two friends. My son ran the first mile, jogged the second mile and walked the last leg of the run. My daughter and my friends took their time, they had nowhere to go lol. We completely lost them out of eye site on the last mile. 

It was fun, got sud up and created another memory for the books!

Back to Why...

 So the attractive Seashell Medal along with its pretty sea creature pins had caught my eye. I contemplated it as I continue to scroll through my social media. I put my phone down thinking I had brushed the thought away, nope, it was still there.  I went back to my phone thinking it wouldn't come back on my feed and told myself that if it was gone it was a sign. Well, it was there! I clicked on the image for more information and I read through the page. Along with the Under the Sea  challenge, the Virtual Running Club offers other races of all types of distance like a Sesame Stree t 100 mile run, All 90's 90 mile, My Little Pony/Rainbow Retro Run and many more. Looking through the options I didn't think twice about it, I have done 5Ks, 10Ks, 1/2 Marathons and Marathons but nothing like a virtual run or a challenge. This is a 300 mile challenge! Why didn't I pick another type of mile challenge like the 90 mile, or 100 mile to start? It was the medal, the medal made me ...

Cont. of My FBF

  I wanted to share a bit more of my small experience and hopefully inspire you if you are thinking of becoming a beginner of anything. Leading up to the school year 1998-1999 and my participation in the Los Angeles Marathon, the only running I did was running from bullies, in P.E. and when I was in track & field during junior high. Little did I know that running would grow to be a passion of mine. Running 1 mile, 6, 13 or 26.2 miles isn't easy, it takes a lot of training and focus. The Students Run LA program helped many students like me prepare to endure each mile while participating in different races throughout the region. I got to see cities and places I had never visited in my own city as a teenager, as a teen I can tell you it is a unique affect and still is to see how the cities have grown.  Through that experience I also learned what the human body is capable of, our bodies are magical. It has an undefined endurance and can be pushed passed its limit. Our body is...

My Virtual Run Challenge - Under the Sea

The virtual run I signed up for is called Under the Sea Challenge  a 300 mile challenge through Virtual Running Club. The Virtual Running Club host both Virtual Races & Virtual Challenges. A percentage of all the registrations are donated to charitable groups. Some organization they donate to are, Make a Wish Foundation Sierra Club, Sesame Workshop, Wander Project, National Park Foundation and Denali Education Center of Alaska What is the difference between the two? Well, a virtual race needs to be completed by the given date range. The location and when you complete it, it is up to you. A virtual challenge, is a goal you commit to complete. Your are rewarded for meeting each milestone. For example the shell metal displayed, the are small pins on the ribbon, those pins represent each milestone in the challenge.  Mileage you accumulate can be used for different runs you sign up for and make your own rituals . I have 1 year to complete my challenge, I can go at my pace, run,...
