ManyWordsLater @Gissy running 10k ain‘t nothing! 3y
Gissy @ManyWordsLater That‘s true, it was hot and there were some small hills. But you get the adrenaline we you see a mother pushing her adult daughter wheel chair while she was running, in those hills!😳 It was so emotional❤️Her daughter had a catastrophic car accident because she was texting. Now they do these races in support to avoid doing that behavior while driving. 3y
