Running for Roses

This past Sunday was the 29th Annual Run for the Roses in Raleigh.  It was a bigger race and a lot of fun.  I have to admit that I was not as prepared as I should have been and my time reflected that.  My chip time was 24:55.  But I am not upset about it.  I just know I have to work harder next time.  I was able to win second place in my age group... and the prize was a $20 gift certificate to a sports store!  Cool!  Also, all the female runners got red roses!  The best part about Sunday was running w/ Lisa.  She was in a quarter-mile race and did a great job.  It was great to be outside all day and w/ my family.

Me before my race.

Running w/ Lisa.  The noise at the finish line scared her.

Getting her medal. All smiles now!

Yay Lisa!

I love this pic.
