Well, the big 5K race was Saturday for my husband and I. It was really enjoyable. I won't lie to the fact that prior to the race my stomach was in knots. I'm not sure if that's due to the fact that I've always gotten nervous before my races or because my husband had been praying for the past week "that we may not die on our race." (Talk about really boosting my confidence! ha ha)
Well, after some stretching, paying a fee and a tightening our shoelaces, we were off. My husband had a bit more gusto than I did and bolted out of the gates. He was so sweet to first check with me to see if he could go on ahead. I wasn't far behind him, probably 75-100 yards. I never lost sight of his cute backside the duration of the race. That's what kept me motivated to keep going.
We still don't know our exact times. They said our times would be posted in the newspaper on Thursday. That's good ol' Wyoming for you. Kyle thinks he finished around 26 minutes and I was shortly thereafter.
Needless to say, it was great! We survived, AND......we're running another one in two weeks! Yep! That's right. The heat is on!
Best friends
That is so exciting. I run in the mornings, but without my husband. I would love to run races with my hubby. Take pictures of the next one and post. Great work!
