What a great race! Totally laid back, flat course, perfect cool weather.
It was a great way to start the weekend.
This was my first race pushing a stroller...it posed some challenges for sure.
- If I went under a 8 minute pace the front wheel started to wobble so I had to PUSH down on to the handlebar pretty hard. It was a great arm workout! (I am taking the stroller this week to a bike shop to get fixed, because though I dealt with it during the race, I don't want to deal with that all the time)
- People don't seem to look behind them or even to the side of them and I got ran in to more than a couple of times. Which annoyed the crap out of me!
- The first mile Frankie was not wanting to sit down with Phene in the stroller, even though I had him run our mile warm up hoping to tire him out. After mile 1 he finally settled in.
Splits: 7:46/7:42/7:50
And Jessica redeemed herself with a 24:30 time!
Saturday night we went to a pre-father's day dinner at our favorite Mexican food place. Where I ate WAY too many chips, as usual!
Sunday Sean and I ran 2 miles with the dogs and Phene. Frankie had a PR of 1.5 miles. (That Chihuahua can run!) It was Sean's second run of the morning for a total of 4 miles! I think this is the longest he has ever run, and I was very proud of him.
That's about it for my weekend....22 miles total for the week which made me SO happy!!!!

I can't believe Frankie ran that far! That's really impressive for those little legs. And, I can't believe you pushed both Phene and Frankie for the race - that's hard core!
