I can’t believe it’s year FOUR of running the Hot Chocolate 15k in Dallas. I still feel like a “newbie!” This is always a fun race – I always see so many familiar faces and this year was one of the best! I got to see so many amazing runner friends, it was a nice chilly (but not COLD COLD) morning – that *perfect* chilly running weather, and running felt great!
I didn’t go out with a goal in mind, I just wanted to run what felt good! So, I am really happy with a 1:10 15K – with negative splits*!!!
*Run nerds understand
I’m going to share my adventures via photos with captions this time! Let’s get to the good stuff!
Pre-race in the warm building!
All set in my corral! Realizing I forgot my sunglasses… and the sun is out – I’m not used to running this LATE! (8:15 am!)
My running co-op peeps – ready to start!
…and we’re off! …and I need sunglasses. Feeling good, though!
Oh! It’s getting a little warm! A 15K is a *little* longer than a 5K… Almost there, I think!
Looking jolly at mile nine after tackling the last massive HILL.
We did it! Oh! That speedy gal that passed me was Tori!!! Hey giiirl!
I also got to meet Stacey (miles4mom!) She did awesome!
Once again, sunglasses would’ve been cool. Pic with our bling!
There you have it! Year 4 in the books. Happy with this progression!
Have you ever run the Hot Chocolate 5 or 15K races? Which city?

Great running Jenna. That is an excellent time. I think there are Hot Chocolate runs in Canada, but there is nothing near where I am. Hope your year has gone well with the pandemic.
