This past weekend myself along with my sister and Mike ran a the Richmond 10k. We had a great time. I know its crazy to say we had a great time running, but the weekend was fun in general. They had run the event before but I have had never run it. I was highly impressed and beat my goal time of 75 minutes. I ran the course in 1 hr 11min and 14 sec. We had a really nice visit in Richmond with my Grandmother who is still spunky and going strong. She's an amazing lady. We had dinner with my Aunt and Uncle as well at a cute little restaurant in Ashland, VA. I was sort of nervous and didn't know what to expect doing a 10k, but it really wasn't that bad. I probably could've pushed harder but didn't see the point. So in all this running madness Sarah, Mike and I have signed up for the Virginia Beach Rock N Roll half marathon Labor Day weekend. WHAT ARE WE THINKING!!!!!! This means training through the summer, hopefully its not a scorcher!
Yesterday Grace had her first swimming lesson. She's a natural, just like her momma! Her big step yesterday was blowing bubbles! We're taking them at Bridgewater College. I could very well teach her lessons after my experience with swimming, lifeguarding, and teaching swimming lessons, but I figure it's good for someone else to tell her what to do and show her what to do since I'm home with her all the time. We're still inconsistently using the potty, but we'll get there!
Baseball is underway but with not such good luck. Hopefully the Streaks can pull a win out!!! Go Big Blue.
