This past weekend a bunch of you came out to support troops from all countries around the world. Thanks!
If you don’t know what an #Anywhere5K is, the concept is simple. Instead of registering for a scheduled race at a predetermined location, #Anywhere5K says, “Don’t bother. Go run your own race.”
No registration fees, stale onion bagels, or watered down Gatorade. Just roll out of bed and go.
For the Troop Tribute #Anywhere5K we had a few handful of runners who accepted the virtual running challenge and supported the troops worldwide!

Quick Thoughts
Many of you PR’d. Huge props to you. Running a race by yourself, against yourself, is difficult, making a PR all that more fantastic.
