Gate River Run 2010

We decided to run the River Run on Friday. The race was on Saturday at 8:30am. I had been running some but not enought to really train well. I decided it would just be for fun and just enjoy being out there. Robert ran and did a great job! This was his first River Run. He was a champ. He and Paul have been friends since elementary school. Robert's wife Joyce is a very close friend. They are like family to us. Its kind of funny, Paul and Joyce both hate to run. So, they cheer us on.
I took my point and shoot camera and attempted to document the race along the way. I am so glad I did. We had so much fun!!!
I did not break any records with my time but had a blast just being out there. It was an absolute perfect day to run.
