Summer time Nights 5K Recap
June 23, 2025 –
This previous Thursday, our True Coaching Studio crew laced up and hit the pavement for the Narragansett Summer time Nights 5K right here in Rhode Island.
Whether or not this was their first run, one thing they skilled for, or only a private aim to complete, they crushed it.
To point out our love and help for a neighborhood teen & wonderful household pal who lately left this world too quickly, all of us wore orange bandanas. These honored our buddy Tommy and his household.
Each time I noticed certainly one of our runners cross by with that pop of orange, I felt this deep sense of connection, resilience, and satisfaction. It was like vibrant sparks of Tommy everywhere in the course.
I’m so happy with each single certainly one of our runners — for displaying up, pushing themselves, and working with objective. It jogged my memory why I really like our group a lot.
———————————-
Now, should you ask me if I’m a “runner” my reply is all the time “nicely, I wouldn’t say I’m large lengthy distance runner” as I all the time gravitate in the direction of sprints, soccer, and faster spurts.
With that being stated although, any time I run a 5k or do one thing aggressive, I do have a bit inside me that likes that longer push and having the fitting gear has undoubtedly set me up for this sense.
Final 12 months, I forgot headphones….and it felt just like the longest 3 miles of my life. This 12 months I double checked I had my headphones and in addition equipped with a brand new pair of adidas lightest trainers, the Adizero EVO SL Shoe.
I wore them straight out of the field (dangerous, I do know) and… zero regrets.
These items are loopy mild, tremendous supportive, and hugged my ft in all the fitting methods. The compression was simply sufficient to maintain my ft feeling safe, however not stiff.
I didn’t must cease and regulate them as soon as — they didn’t shift or rub and I felt like I used to be gliding.
The cushioning is what actually gained me over, although. They had been smooth with out feeling like I used to be working on marshmallows — or like I used to be thrown again into the Spice Women period with platform footwear (iykyk).
They gave simply sufficient help to guard my joints however loads of floor really feel to maintain me transferring sturdy.I’d extremely suggest these and shorts to anybody trying to run some summer season (and past) 5k’s!
To everybody who ran, confirmed up, & pushed themselves — I’m so happy with you.
And to our wonderful crew who got here to cheer us on, thanks for bringing the power and help everywhere in the course!
That is what group appears like.
Be true to you,
Kasey
