Well this Saturday was the All-American 5K for Lt Dan Berschinski
I loved being a part of it and I took Stefanie for her first 5K (we'll see if she loves me or hates me for that ;)
It was really awesome, starting out our race with the National Anthem, then finishing off by being handed an American flag. After munching my banana at the end I spotted Lt Dan and went over to shake his hand and tell him THANK YOU for his service. It was just a reminder to me that all our men and women in the service really do write our government a blank check up to and including their lives. They deserve to be remembered. I came it at 32:58 this time. A new personal best! Barely :) As I ran up to the finish I thought, if you can just come in under 33 minutes you'll beat your own record....
Then it was off to the Renaissance Fair, where we watched these people (www.barelybalanced.com)
And took pictures with Pirates :)
After all this was done I went off to get a deluxe spa facial - which was awesome. Then I took Miriam to an indoor play place complete with those big balloon jumping things and balloon slides. (Not pictures of that sadly) WHAT a busy day - but it was great!
And I'd like a facial or massage every week for the rest of my life please. So worth it after running/walking all over the place...
