Hot Chocolate Run
Dec. 2nd, 2018 01:22 pmIt was raining and about 37 degrees F/3 degrees C, so Wakanomori and I got bundled into many layers to join a crowd of 6,000 other participants in the Hot Chocolate Run.
Here is my outfit! Thanks to you all, I was able to raise $228.63, which meant I was given a red cap to wear and a special red number bib.
During the race, the wish cards gradually got soggy and fell off--let's think to ourselves that at that moment, the wish was promised fulfillment. Three wishes managed to hang on the whole time--let's put a favorable spin on that too and imagine they got the support of a full 5 kilometers.
I think my pace will be somewhat lower than last year, but that's okay. It's not even up yet--they only have results for people who ran it in 27 minutes or less... which is not me. (I'm also fretting that maybe the chip was broken and they're not going to have recorded my run at all, which would be a HUGE HUGE TRAGEDY and I will shed many bitter tears ... yeah no. I know I really ran it, and the money is already safely in their hands, and so todo bien, todo bien.)
ETA: They did post the times--yay! I ran a whole minute and 4 hundredths of a second slower than last year. Boo!
