We Ran Over The Columbia River

One of the best races I've ever done!  Blue skies, no wind, great music, great people, and beautiful scenery!  I run 5 miles usually 3 to 4 times a week, so I wasn't nervous about finishing.... a new feeling for me.  I was just excited, so much so that I decided to put my camera in my running belt and just snap pics along the way.  So glad I did. 

At the beginning of the race we were waiting for buses to take us over the bridge to the Washington side to start.

 This guy walked the whole race on stilts....  would have felt bad if he had beaten me.

 I got to the top of the bridge and waited for a minute for Brian to get a picture with him.

 A look back at what we had just come over..... we still had over a mile to go.

 After:

Still high from that experience.  Thinking of all the people I would love to be able to join us next year....

We went here:

Dropped the kids off at school at 8:05 and raced out the door to this place to celebrate one of the best decisions we have ever made. 

Perfect day, just not long enough.
