Word(less) Weekend



8:00 a.m. Saturday Morning
Waiting for our ride to the race.
RED FLANNEL RUN


9:45 a.m.
Post race.
Stephanie: (3 miles) 28:40 (appx. 9:34min/mile pace)
 Ryan: (5 miles) 34:30 (6:54min/mile pace)
We don't have our official chip times yet.
But these times made us smile. :)

For a race in mid-February in Iowa...
I was really loving the sunshine.
I was really REALLY loving the race's theme colors.
There was a sea of RED.

This guy has been at every local race I've participated in.
The last time we saw him he had on only a loincloth.
And it was only 24 degrees outside.
He stands and poses and waits for people to take his picture.
Don't mind if I do.

 
Shrimpies.



Miss Ava




Choices.
1, 2, or 3?????
(All in red)



Mmmm...Turtles.

I love the idea for the race--how cool! That guy must have been freezing--eek!

Those turtles take me back to my childhood, I could seriously down a huge bag of those bad boys.

I love the quote about weirdness, so true I tell you.

Your comment on my blog was so incredibly sweet. That is one of the nicest things you could have said (or written). :) Thank you!

The run looks like a really fun time (well, cold first, then fun).
I'm spending V-Day doing my own thing since my honey is out of town for work...I'll be turning it into spa night. No complaints about that :)
Hope yours is great!

That race looks SO FUN!! Running is fun and all but dressing up and running is the BEST. I like dress #1 the bestest, and I hope your VDAY was amazing!
Thanks so much for your sweet comment on my last post steph. I really REALLY appreciate it. It helps me so much to know that I am not the only one out there that goes through the weird cycle of feeling discouraged sometimes! You are the best! Can't wait to see which dress you chose! xoxoxo
