We started to pretend in October that the weather was getting cooler - only 100 instead of 115! haha! We went to the park early one morning on a non-preschool day and Claire got to play with some of her cute preschool friends!
We went to the drive-in movie one evening - it's hard to get pics when it's dark out...
More running! My trail race was coming up soon, so my training was coming to an end... I obviously needed a short walking break, so i took a quick pic of the cool shadows!
Look! I'm on the cactus...
More park fun...
Ben had to work late on the night of my trail race, so I got a babysitter and went anyway! I was really proud of myself for still registering last minute for this race and going even though I knew I'd be going by myself. I strapped on my headlamp and went on with my plans! As the sun was setting it was so pretty...
Getting ready to start! The timer had already started for a previous wave of runners for a longer distance. I did the 10K...
I dared to get one pic on the trail, at the risk of tripping in the dark. There were reflective ribbons tied to trees and bushes along the way to mark the correct trail - there were some stretches when I couldn't see anyone in front of me or behind me and it was a little freaky! But it was so cool! It surprisingly felt awesome to run in the dark in the desert!
I did it! I have no idea what my time was, but I was just so excited to have trained for and completed this race - yay!
Proud you ran!!
