New England

My family and I went to New England back in October. The weather was wonderfully cold and the trees were absolutely beautiful. Oh, and I finally visited the Ben & Jerry's factory :) My favorite!!

Las Vegas Half Marathon

Hans, Collins and I ran the las vegas half marathon a few weeks back. The race started early Sunday morning at 6:05am with a firework show and with that we were running down the Las Vegas strip which was truly a unique experience. The sun was rising steadily and the temperature... a brisk 46 degrees. Without stopping to walk, Hans and I crossed the finish line at the end of our 13.1 mile adventure at 2 hours and 8 minutes.

The cab drivers all complained about the strip being closed

Vegas marathon sign (yeah yeah, we didn't do the full marathon
but we still got to take a picture with the sign)

Best attempt at being happy at 5:00am before running 13 miles in the cold

Finish!!
Woohoo!!
