Aquarium 5K and Half Marathon

On Saturday I ran a 5K while my friends ran the half marathon. I feel really grateful that I feel well enough to run even though I'm pregnant, but I do have to say that with each 5K I become more and more humbled by my time. I guess when I'm 9 months along my time on Saturday won't seem so slow. :) I'm totally proud of my buddies who ran the half; they did an awesome job. They even want to do another one soon. I'm glad there are more people who have entered the crazy world of long distance running. Rather than the traditional beginning or end of race photo, I decided to include this one because it's so funny. My friend Andrea (pink tank top) and I looked totally ticked off and her husband (front left) and Tyler are like, "I'm just going to stay out of it." This is another funny one because Andrea is pretending to take a picture of me but really wants to get one of the Richard Simmons-ish runner behind me (gotta love the white and pink shorts).

Okay, here's a normal one. Can you tell how much fun Tyler is having??? We rewarded him for his patience by taking him into the aquarium. Every time he saw a fish he'd say, "Whoooooooa!" The rest of the day he said, "shark, shark, shark." Have I mentioned before how much I love Tyler???

The race was fun and I'm excited to run more before kid number two takes the stage.

PS I have to say thanks to Tom who comes to races and cheers me on all the time. What an awesome husband!
