Welcome!

Welcome to my blog, Life As I See It! This blog is just a place for me to share my thoughts on, well, everyday life. We all have stories and thoughts to share, so I figured I would just start up a blog to put some of mine out there.

I began running more seriously in 2016, so I will tend to post about the races I run. I am also a cybersecurity student, graduating in the fall of 2020. Thus, you will also see some IT, cybersecurity, and related content on here as well. Another passion of mine is cooking. So, from time to time, I might post a recipe I have come up with or refined. It really is all about, well, life!

Thanks for stopping by and, if you have any thoughts to share on my topics, please feel free to comment and let me/us/the world know! Cheers!

2019 Firecracker Flight 5K

Waiting for the Start
Well, this was my third race with Bodies Race Company and, for now, the last for this year. I ran the Sweetheart Shuffle 5K in February (the COLDEST race I've ever run) and the Hero Hustle 5K last month. I am not signed up for any of their other races this year, but we'll see if that changes. They are really fun races. I have a 10K slated for next month, half marathon and marathon in September, and half marathons in October and November. I am also going to run in the Market to Market Relay in October as well. So, I do have a busy running schedule!

My Grand Prize!
The weather for the run was, well, muggy. We had some nice cloud cover, but the temperature was in the mid-70s and the dew point was hanging right there with it. There was a slight breeze. Just enough to keep us cool but not enough to really affect us during the run. The course was actually pretty flat, as we ran along the Little Papillion Creek. The only hills were a few dips where the trail goes under bridges. Otherwise, flat and wide open! Other than the humid conditions, this was a fun race and certainly one I want to run again next year!
