Beat the Bridge!


This year I decided that before my 30th birthday (which is next week), I would run the "Beat the Bridge" race in Seattle. It's a 5 mile race that benefits Diabetes research, and the first two miles have to be run in under 20 minutes in order to "beat" the university bridge before it goes up. As it turns out, because of a logjam of people, we actually ended up having to run it in about 16 or 17 minutes, and I thought I was going to die! But Paul and I did end up making it just in time! I was so glad to have him to run with me to push me. It was a beautiful day, and it was so much fun. My girlfriends Dana and Jesse ran as well, we sort of vowed to do this race together since we are all celebrating turning 30 this month. They did well and I was so proud of them!

Stroller stride ladies ran too!
