Road to Wellness 5k Training

This year is the 5th year for the Road to Wellness 5k race in Roxbury, Massachusetts. I love this race because we get to run in Roxbury and this is a community based race. We( Dimock health Center, B.A.A, and Black Girls Run) provide resources and free clinic training to get people ready for the 5k race in September. Roxbury is a predominately and historically African-American community in the city. To have a USATF certified course in the community of Roxbury is pretty awesome.

This was the first Saturday that I was able to participate. It was great to meet the ladies and men that are starting their journey. I’m here to help out, support, and encourage. And do some sweating in the process
