Singing in the rain........


On Saturday I ran in a 10K with Natalie and Kresta. As you can tell from the pictures, it was just a lovely day for a run. It was in the 30s, raining (at some points pouring), and we had to run the course two times because it was only a 5K distance. The funniest part was the fact that maybe about a total of 15-20 people actually showed up to race. We were 3 of like 6 women or something so we took 2nd and 3rd...and got medals and everything!!! By the time we were finished we were all soaked to the bone and so we just jumped into our cars to get home to a warm shower. Thanks for letting me join you girls, it was, well....good company at least!

Well done, Yinzi! I am VERY impressed! That actually sounds like the perfect kind of day for me to run. If I run in anything above like 48 degrees my cheeks turn purple and I look like I'm going to die! Hmmmm.....
