Anthony ran in another race this weekend. This was a 10K that goes over the very tall/steep Talmadge Bridge over the Savannah river downtown to Hutchinson Island and then back over the bridge back to downtown. He said it was steep!! His technique was to keep his head down on the inclines so he couldn't see how much farther he had before reaching the top. There was a container ship going under the bridge one of the times he was at the top and he said it was so cool to see!
This race was much less crowded than the Rock and Roll race was (5,100 runners vs. 17,000!) and his race started at 9 so we all rode downtown together. Here we are at mile 1 waiting on him to run by.
There he is! We planned ahead so he knew where we would be and he gave Bryce a high five on his way by. Bryce loved it!
The kids and I walked to the finish line after seeing him at mile 1. This race was different because once they got on the bridge you couldn't follow and see the runners again until the finish line. We got a good spot and waited and watched for him. I like that he can predict his finishing times so we knew about when to start watching for him.
Yes, he and the lady in just a pink bra were running neck and neck the whole time. I love that she has on pants, armwarmers and just a bra. Does her stomach get too hot to cover with a shirt while the rest of her is cold? Don't get it at all!!
We ran into our friends the Bradleys (my friend Brandi ran in the 5K) and the kids had fun playing together.
We made plans with them to go to the downtown Christmas parade that night and were so excited. Then CeCe woke up from nap with a fever. She and Anthony stayed home while Bryce and I went to the parade. It was fun and I'm glad we went, but I was worried about CeCe and couldn't enjoy myself all the way.
That afternoon Bryce got to try on our neighbor's new Army Ranger helmet. It was super cool!!
