the race that never happened...

Iesha and I embarked upon this journey at about 5:30pm this afternoon…we were all set to run UMMC’s Ready, Set, Glow 5k benefiting The Jackson Free Clinic.

The race didn’t start until 8:30pm so we were only about 2.5 hours early to campus (note the sarcasm).

We met some cool folks, saw old friends, played the piano in the student union, and flitted around until about 7:45pm...

when of course, the bottom of the sky fell out.

We quickly jumped into her car...

“Oh no, it might rain us out!”

 But don’t worry, 
Forrest (our new friend) and I had our own glow party in the car…

“I wish we had oreos in this car-glow party.”

at about 8:30pm we decided that we did not want to wait out this glow party any longer so we took ourselves and our glow sticks to Babalu where we enjoyed guacamole and chocolate balls. 

and that is the end of the race that we never ran.

oh well--at least our money went to support a good cause AND our bellies are full of pure goodness.
