Race Day!

Today, my hubby and I ran in a race to support the hospital that Scott works at. So fun! We got a babysitter for the boys (early on a Saturday morning. . . no small task), and we headed out. After listening to me go on and on about racing for a year and a half, Scott decided he'd give it a try. Of course, he's awesome!

I had already warned him: "I want to run this race fast." As I'm training for a half marathon that's a couple of months away, 3.1 miles is an easy distance to run at a fast pace.

And run fast we did! My only disappointment was that the course was goofed up. We ended up running 3.42 miles with a time of 30:09.

The best part? We both placed! I placed second in the women's age category 25-29, and Scott placed second in the men's. Neither one of us was expecting to place with there being 140 runners. That was pretty cool!

And how do you celebrate such a victory? With mimosas and bacon, of course! (Well, when you're paying a babysitter you do!)
