Our neighborhood rec center puts on a race series each year starting off with a Super Bowl 5k. This year Jeff was able to participate while the rest of the family cheered him on. I was scheduled to race but came down with bronchitis a week prior. Begrudgingly I sat on the sidelines and took pictures. Grandma and Grandpa even came along to watch little peanut inside where it was nice and toasty.
Despite frigid temperatures and harsh road conditions the turnout was still pretty good!
And they're off!
Jeff taking a second to wave to the camera.
Here comes the winner, and look he's a crazy man wearing shorts!
His time was 18:06- not bad for how slick the trails were.
Careful buddy, your shoe's untied!
You're a long ways from Wasington Buddy... it's like Forrest Gump, he just kept running and never stopped.
Got to love his spirit!
A little while after all the men in tights crossed the finish line, Jeff appeared around the corner of the last stretch.
I was slightly relieved to see he was still in good shape! He had strained his back while shoveling our driveway a few days back so I was worried he would hurt himself more.
Go Rocky!!! Errr.. Jeff!
Good job Jeff, you made it!
Look at me, I cheated the system... I got a t-shirt, bib number AND post race beer...and I didn't even race!
Miss Johanna had a great time with Grandma on the indoor track. Then she zonked out and had a nice little nap.
She woke up though as soon as Jeff got back! Next race up is St. Patty's Day, here's hoping I am nice and healthy for that one!

ReplyDeleteWay to go Jeff! I'm amazed you stood outside in that weather with how your cough sounds. You had better take care of yourself! I'm glad Johanna was nice a cozy inside. Happy Super Bowl Day!
