Race Recap: Freedom 5K— Molalla, OR

After years of talking about it, Katie and I finally sewed star-spangled running skirts before our fourth of July run. We even had enough left over for her daughter, and even her upcoming little one, perhaps for next year’s race.

We worked hard to get these skirts done before race day!

It was our first year running the Freedom 5K in Molalla, but despite it being a bit of a drive to get to the start, we really enjoyed it.

Running through a walk of flags!

I ran with Taylor and Katie and we took it rather slow, trying to enjoy ourselves and make it through 5K (none of us had really been running much lately).

It follows the parade route, so you get cheered on, and then, after finishing, you get to watch the parade! The post-race snack of blueberries also really hit the spot.

Ran With: Taylor, Katie
Time: 46:39
Best part of the parade: The longhorn cattle, of course!
