55:15 finish time

Well, we finished the 10K this morning and it was a blast!!!!!  Although the weather wasn’t great, the rain held out just long enough so we didn’t end up all soaking wet and cold!  Summit  is a beautiful street to run through and I couldn’t have asked for better running partners!  Thanks Angie, Jodi and Amy!  You 3 are the absolute best!  We ran an average of 8:54 minute miles and held strong the entire run. Remind me to never ever try and drink a cup of water and run at the same time!  Thank you, but I think I’ll pass on the water breaks next time! 

Here are a few pictures.  All courtesy of Mr. Joel.  Thank you so much for bringing the kids and standing in the rain and cold waiting for me to come through the finish line.  I know we snuck up on you guys—–therefore all the shots of us already having passed you all.

          The 7:30am start was cold and windy.  The one and only beautiful St. Paul Cathederal!

 

                          Will waiting so patiently for Mom to hurry up and finish already! Notice the signs
the kids had made for us!  My favorite was Claire’s:  “Sweat is my Mom’s perfume!”  What a hoot!
                                               The “Fab 4″ coming through the finish line!
                                                                      
                      The kids so happy I had finished.  My favorite cheerleaders!
                         Me, Amy, Jodi & Angie so thrilled we had 6.2 miles behind us!
