Maddie over at Mad Health Chick  ran the Alive to Strive Race with her mom and used it as her first 10K. She even wrote a blog post on her experience that includes some tasty looking food photos. Definitely go check it out!

She and her mom did really well time-wise but unfortunately due to some confusion regarding time-chip pickup didn’t receive an official time.

However, judging by their “unofficial” time; they would have place in the top of their respective age categories!

I hope you had a good day nonetheless. Thanks for coming out and congratulations on your great run!
