MARATHON- CHECK
and we will definitely be going back for more.
On April 9th (which was conveniently my dad's birthday) Robert and I set off for our marathon (ing) adventure! And yes, I most certainly made that a verb. We have been training for the marathon since the beginning of January, and have enjoyed every 5, 9, and 23 mile run. To everyones surprise, after running a grand total of 403 miles together, we aren't sick of each other.
Well-- let me rephrase that, I am not sick of his company, and lets just hope it's the same on his part.
Dad ran a 10k and finished first in his age division. He deserved it, that man is a beast. (in the most sincere way) I don't think he would have spent his birthday any other way. Melissa, Ernie, the boys, and mom all came to cheer us on at the end. It was so nice to have them there! They even brought us recovery drinks and bars. After we all headed over to Sweet Tomatoes for dad's birthday lunch. All in all, it was a good day.
Next on the list- Triathlon
I guess I should also put conquering Anat & Phys with an A. Eh.
