Midnight MOON Run...

My friends and I just did another 5K in Sandy this past weekend. It was a Midnight Moon Run and it was SOOOO much fun! I was a little worried since my hip has been bothering me lately so I just went in with NO expectations, except to have fun. It was my friend Dara's first race. I had been trying to get her to run a race with me for a while, so when I told her about this one she finally gave in and stared training. She was positive she wouldn't run it in under 40 minutes. Our time ended up being just over 33 minutes. This race was fun but pretty tough. The first mile was a huge hill. But you know what they say; what goes up...must come down! =) We got hauling down the hill and I seriously felt like a little kid running so fast. I LOVED it!! I have to admit, I was a little concerned about running a 5K at midnight considering I'm usually fast asleep by then. I started getting pretty tired around 10:30, that is, until Mike made us some delicious crepes to fuel us up! =) Here are some pictures of that night with all my goofy friends and my even goofier Hubby!!

Yes, I am a little retarded ...But, I was very tired!Me and Dara...The girlies...ALL of us...Dara at the finish line...fyi, this is not her time. I made her stand in front of the finish line as we were leaving for a picture. =)The best part, is that Dara loved it and she's already asking me to find another race to do soon. Thanks to all my running peeps that are there by my side and for making these races so much fun! I love you guys to death!!
