Race Recap By Nancy Wardell:

I completed the Towpath Freedom 5K at Summit Lake in Akron this morning! This event is always well organized and I appreciate how they recognize and honor the veterans before and after the race! The course doesn’t have much elevation and they always have tons of snacks and goodies as well as hot chocolate and coffee for before and after the race. I finished with a time of 28:46 with a pace of 9:15 and placed third in my age group! I was awarded a very nice red coffee cup with the words “Towpath Freedom 5K” on it with a flag and runners. Can’t wait to use it for work! Shirts are always made with great material and long sleeved! I definitely recommend this race to my fellow runners!
