Infinity Gaunlet Virtual 5K & Race Challenge

Do I have any Marvel Universe fans up in here? I know I'm incredibly excited to see both Captain Marvel and Endgame, what about you? I'm also sad I never had the opportunity to run any of the Marvel themed runDisney races at Disneyland, but that's another story for another day.

Are you missing those Disneyland races, too? Well, Level Up Virtual Runs rose to the challenge, and here's your chance to earn an amazing infinity gauntlet medal by participating in the Infinity Gauntlet Virtual Race and Challenge. This medal is beautiful and the detail included with it is impressive! I love how the lanyard is relevant as well!

I was initially intrigued by this virtual race because it also offered the addition of a race challenge along with it! During the months of March and April, runners can earn pins by completing 50, 150, and 250 mile milestones for the challenge, along with their medal for doing the virtual run as well. You can earn the medal by running any of the following distances - 5K, 10K, Half, or Full!

Level Up Virtual Runs is utilizing an app called Inkin where your challenge miles can be tracked and stored. It's super easy to use and also connects to your fitness apps to keep track of your daily mileage as well!

These races are super fun and easy to do from your home, gym, trail, or anywhere you run! Sign up today, using code GAUNTLET10 at checkout for 10% off the registration fee. 

Hope to "see" you there! Happy running!

Pumpkin King 5K

Fall has finally arrived here in Southwest Louisiana! I've been talking about it long enough and yesterday, it finally decided to make it's appearance. Cool weather stuck around the entire day!

Not being one to miss an opportunity like that, I got Brayden suited up and we set out on a quick 5K run. It had been a while since I ran a 5K at a pretty quick (for me) timed pace and I wanted to see how much of a difference the combination of cooler weather and all my hard work at Orangetheory would make.

Also, the guys over at Level Up Virtual Runs offered a spot for me in their Pumpkin King 5K, so I decided to earn my medal with yesterday's run!

We had a great time running our usual route, rolling over bumps in the road and giggling at silly antics. Although pushing a 32+ pound toddler in a stroller can be tiring at times, we really do have fun together! 

After our run, I handed the medal for him to look at. He quickly put it around his neck, smiled for the camera, and said "teee-eeese" (his version of "cheese").

By the end of our run, I was definitely winded and proud of our time! We ran an 8:45 for the first mile, an 8:23 for the second mile, and an 8:20 for the third mile - all a vast improvement from my running times this summer. Regardless of the reason (weather, Orangetheory, or both), I'll take it!

This medal really is a pretty one and perfect for both fall and any Nightmare Before Christmas fans! I love the detail that's included with the medal's lanyard as well. This medal reminds me so much of the Hallowishes fireworks held during this time of year at Walt Disney World.
