BJ and I started out on our Austin road trip bright and early Saturday morning. We had no one to take our picture so we took one of ourselves!
We stopped in Menard to have lunch with BJ's parents.
This is at 5:30 AM on Sunday, Race Day! The desk clerk thought we were nuts! :) We had to be at the race at 6:15! BJ was bussed to the half way point while I waited with about 4000 people at the starting line. Crazy!
We made it back to the hotel! I ran the first 6.4 miles in 1 hour 2 minutes and BJ ran the last 6.7 miles in 1 hour flat! We came in 13th place out of 76 other relay teams! Go Red Raider Runners! :)
And this is us at 6:00 PM Sunday after we drove home.
Yes, we are nuts for driving to Austin and back in 2 days to run in a race. And dorky for taking all of these pictures! :) But we had such a great time and the race was such an awesome experience. It really gave me the motivation I need to keep training for the Big D half marathon in April.
