My friend
Courtney had told me about the
Iron Girl 5K/10K race in Seattle so I thought that I would give it a try. I signed up for the 5K a couple of months before the race and then sort of forgot about it so I had done no training what-so-ever before race day. The race takes you around Green Lake so the views were nice and it made the time go by pretty quickly since you had things to look at. I totally surprised myself by running the race, especially since I am not a runner and that I had done zero training as stated above. I don't think I have ever ran more than a mile or so so running three was pretty good if I do say so myself. :) I finished the race in 39:14 which is pretty good considering. Also, you can't really tell in the pictures but this race had a ton of participants. I believe that there were 3,000 total women running.
Here are some photo's that Courtney's husband Jeff took at the finish line.
(That's me in the white shirt.)
(Heather, Courtney, and I at the finish line.)
Jeff took Ethan to his first Seahawks game and he had a great time until the game and fireworks started. Then it was a little to much for Ethan to take so they unfortunately had to leave during the first quarter, much to Jeff's dismay. Maybe some noise reduction headphones will be in Ethan's future for the next game so it is not so traumatizing but Jeff did manage to get a cute picture of Ethan before the game started in his Seahawks jersey eating fries, with his new friend Blitz that daddy got him.
