A weekend of AG placing, Sun and Family

The hubs first race of the season was a good one. 3rd place in his age group.  There is room for improvement and I can’t wait to see where the next race takes him.  I am so proud of him…especially since post race while he was feeling  like a truck ran over him, he cooked a great meal of steak, lobster and veggies. Yum.

(thanks Coach Mari for the pics!)

The group he trains with (and I run with) did amazing at this race so I am super proud to be associated with this amazing team who are also some of the best friends you could ask for.

The rest of the weekend was filled with sunshine…which for me meant running and golfing.  And I already have the weirdest tan lines on the planet.  I am being really careful with putting on sunscreen this year but my feet are pure white and I have a VNeck tan on my upper body.  Nice…….

We spent Sunday visiting the Pops in our lives and thinking of my Pop In Law who is surely enjoying some lobster and scotch in the afterlife.

Pop In Law Nova Scotia ~ 2002?

My Dad got basically the same gift from me and my sibs – new golf shirts and books.  Creative we aren’t apparently and we suck at taking pics as yet again, I didn’t take any of our family.  Geez….But I do have this awesome one showing my Pops love of the Leafs…not cool in a family of HABS lovers….

I was trying to fix my bright white feet by sitting in the shade with only my feet in the sun but I get too bored. There's another reason for those barefoot runners to wax poetic.
