Race day for the Ronald McDonald 'Run for the House' was on Saturday. Due to the kind of week we had we just walked the mile together. However, this race was rather large and there wouldn't be room to run (in my inexperienced and humble opinion). I think they said there was over 1,600 people there this year.
This picture was the best I could do to show some of the masses.
That being said, we got up EXTRA early to find a parking space, I think we left the house before 5:30am. Emma was a trooper, until 8am, so we finished breakfast and our festivities to go home for a nap.
This race was fun because we toured the Ronald McDonald House and the purpose of their fundraising was made clear.
Well it was my first public running event and I felt like it was now or never. Even walking was a thrill, and I look forward to actually running in more soon. Unfortunately most races are on Saturdays and Shane now works Saturdays. I'll just have to pluck up the courage to run myself and practice more with Emma in the stroller.
Oh and just for fun here is a picture of our romaine lettuce. We've had some excellent salads lately!
