Neon Run

Back in September I ran my first race ever!  It was only a 5K so no biggie.  We ran in the dark and occasionally ran through neon paint.  I was proud that I actually ran the whole thing.  With the adrenaline, I felt I could easily run another 3 miles.  Maybe the next race I do will be a 10K.  I went with 4 friends and had a blast!!!

Before the race

 We each have a letter on our arms to spell out Diane.  Diane (along with Kristen) was the one who got us to run the race.  Unfortunately, she moved before race day.  We had to honor her some how.  Since we ran in the dark, it was easy to lose each other.  Our roll call was our letter.  Once we heard Diane spelled out, we knew we were all close.  So fun!

 After the race

 Running in the dark had it's dangers.  This is Becky's perfectly sculpted yet bleeding leg.  The hazard of passing on uneven pavement.  She got her own special paint that night.

 Here is a short video showing our excitement of finishing.  I'm the leaper on the right.
