We were downtown and ready for the Spokane Marathon – 10k around 8am. I slept like crap last night since Ryan was up twice. My feet were killing me because I wore old boots yesterday and I remembered why I got new shoes. But I did it anyway! I didn’t take my camera this time since it’s so big. The last two miles were HARD on my feet! I swore than when I took my shoes off that my feet would be bleeding, but they weren’t. We finished in 1:48:17 which included a stop to the porta potty. It was much easier than our last 10k because most of it was flat, very small inclines. It was beautiful too!
Lyndsey’s mom, Jo who is 54 did it with us with some of her work friends. She powered through the entire thing with a bad (bone on bone) knee. At the beginning I had a hard time keeping up with her but thankfully she slowed down. She was a true inspiration!!
It was a great race day too, a little chilly at first and overcast but better than being hot! We had a great time and I think I’ll do it again next year.
After we finished we walked a few blocks to Starbucks for some coffee then went back to watch a co-worker of Jo’s finish the half marathon. Holy smokes!! Some of those marathon runners are intense!
(I thought the shirts were cute!)
I came home and my mom, the boys and I went to lunch at Tomato Street (yum!). When we got home I put Ryan down for a nap and I took a nice 2 hr nap on the couch while Zack watched cartoons.
