Meet me Downtown 5k - June 2, 2007

Some firsts for me:
1) first running 5k
2) first day that I have ever run twice in one day (I ran 8 miles Saturday morning and did the 5k Saturday night)
3) first time I have placed in the top three in my age group. I took 2nd place in my age group (35-39). I won a long sleeved 'Running Shop' technical shirt. Thanks Running Shop! I finished in 25:56.
Here we are before the race in our skirts (Lisa, Renee and Sheryl):

Meet my husband Ken! He came with me to the race to support me. I couldn't ask for a better husband. After the race, there was a showing of 'Chariots of Fire' at the newly renovated Fox Theatre downtown (free tickets with the race entry). What a trooper - he even sat through the movie (although he did get a little siesta in!) Thank you Kenny for being my number one fan.
The race was held in La Placita Village in Downtown Tucson. Very pretty as you can see. What a fun day!

Hi my dear Aunt Renee [=
I'm digging your blog, although I must say, you need more about your lovely sister and niece that you love so much!
I love you and I'll see you next weekend!
