color me rad

I got to cross off one of my goals this weekend by completing my second 5k of the year. Obviously I wasn't breaking any records, personal or otherwise, but I was really proud of myself for doing it anyway. Alannah and I went by ourselves this year. We jogged a little and walked a lot and came in at right about 48 minutes. It was just as fun as last year, may be even more fun since we knew better what to expect, although I did suffer quite a bit this time afterward with knees so sore that it was almost impossible to get back up to my second-story apartment later that day. May have cried a little bit. But I survived and hope to do it again, and maybe we'll even take the Peanut along next time.

pretty rad

My cousin/roommate Alannah and I did the Color Me Rad 5k in San Jose this morning. We were up kind of late last night for Noah's birthday and only got a few hours of sleep before we had to leave for the race, so we were pretty exhausted but it was still a ton of fun and I'd love to do it again. Especially now that I know what to expect. P decided to run with us at the last minute, and Alannah's boyfriend V was there too, to cheer us on along with our aunt. It was pretty rad.
