We ran the Revlon 5k in our Vibram shoes


This was the first time she joined me on a 5k, we did a few training runs around our neighborhood but mostly we stuck to walks and a lot of bike rides. We wore our fivefinger shoes and yes matching sweat pants 
It was great to run with her !! love you babe! !!


 

We got there a little early , most teams had a meeting point in the stands but our team didn't register so we headed out to the starting line , which turned out to be better, since there wasn't a lot of people there  we got to go almost all the way to the front. We got to see the announcers up close and we were quick to get started, some of the other people on our team took up to an hour to get to the starting line. I think they were expecting about 45000 people I wouldn't be surprised if there were thousands more than that.

Running in to the Coliseum was awesome!!!

Once we got to the tunnel we all knew it was so close to the finish line and no one could contain their excitement hootin and a hollerin we all tiredly ran in, fist pumping,  for a few moments became cool again.

We got our lunch bags and water and went up to the stands to watch the rest of the runners trickle in 


Every now and then We would muster our meek sounding YEAY for all those crossing the finish line 

Hey they even got our bodies perfectly portrayed up by the entrance !
