A race in every state…As part of our trip, we decided to run a 5K in each state. It is a great way for us to get a chance to quickly plug in and participate in a community event, stay accountable to our regular exercise routines and also get to be able to say we ran a 5K in 50 states – which is nice. It also provides an opportunity to contribute to good causes, as many races raise funds for worthy organizations. Read on to learn about our races, the organizations the races benefited, and how the races went.
