Little did I know when I left on this vacation that I would be competing in my first race! I decided last minute to sign up for the pre-parade 10K, then realized I'd left my running shoes at home. Oh well, I needed some new ones anyway! It was kind of weird and kind of cool running on the parade route where everyone was sitting out watching. I wish I could tell you that I ran it like a champ. No, no, that first uphill mile I thought I was going to die. And then, what's up with no water station until mile two?!?! Hello, some of us not accustomed to those higher elevations needs a little H2O. A lot of H2O. Is it hot out here?!?
No matter... I finished it. It may have taken me 1:15 to do it, but I finished it. My dad brought my kids to the finish line, along with my nieces seen here. Anne on the left, Megan on the right. Way to go, Mom!!

Kudos, Austin.
Avery and Stet had so much fun with their frickin' awesome cousins: Austin, Maddison, Olivia, and Avery.
