Friday night, April 29th, I was debating a long run with a couple friends or joining some others for their local 5k trail race. Well, my daughter wanted to race, so that sealed it.
With the race an hour south in Pulaski, Tennessee, our morning started early Saturday. With a little later race start, we both ate a good breakfast and starting getting in our electrolytes. Once we got off the highway, we enjoyed the country roads and small towns we passed.
We arrived, checked in and some time to stretch before cheering on the 1 mile runners. Several of the Scalawags running group showed up to run the 5 mile race.
The course weaved through the race directors farm with several challenging climbs for a 5k. The route allowed me to see my youngest and cheer her on several times.
We enjoyed our time at Run the Rolling Hills in Pulaski and plan to go back. I managed a 2nd place overall finish and my daughter was 1st female overall.
