Welcome No Boundaries Participants!!

RUN #1 IS DONE!!!! Congratulations to all of those who took their first step to becoming a better runner this morning!! It was great to see all of the eager, smiling faces out there bright and early! I hope everyone feels the pride one gets when they start the process of making themselves better. Pat yourself on the back and don't hold back the personal pride you should be feeling. Tomorrow when you go to work, tell everyone you can that you started working toward your goal and how good that feels! As I like to say, "you may not be the fastest, you may not win the race, but you beat EVERY single person that never got out of bed!"

With that said, I look forward to seeing you all on Thursday night for our next run. You may wish to bring a small flashlight or head lamp as the sun will be going down as we run the Miner's Ravine (which will get dark quickly).

Lastly, in true gO! spirit, we cannot possibly let Isaac get away with leading his group a full MILE farther than planned without a little retaliation! So.......

Sir Isaac's 5K

From every direction
No Boundaries runners came
To train for a 5k
All their goals were the same.

Some started off fast
Some started off slow
But ne’er did it matter
Just as long as they gO!

50 runners were sent
Down the trail on their way
One mile was the distance
On this beautiful spring day.

Although there was one group
Whose leader did stray
An additional mile added
Much to their dismay.

Even Jen told Isaac
“Right now we should turn”
Only to be told
“Keep going, feel the burn!”

But according to Isaac
The runners kept up the pace
Running extra mileage
With a smile on their face.

So while you were told
10 weeks to a 5k
Little did you know Isaac’s plan:
You’ll run a 5k... TODAY!

Hoping your first run
Was as great as can be
See you on Thursday

To run 1, 2 maybe even 3!
