Yesterday The Girl Who Thinks She’s a Bird woke me up at 6 am.
“Mom.
Mom. Get up. The Tacoma Sound to Narrows Race is today.”
“What are you talking about? I didn’t sign us up for any race.”
Well apparently SHE did.
Before I has time to wipe the sleep from my eyes {or take a shower, brush my hair, or drink a cup of tea} we were at Vassulat Park in Tacoma and the first set of Military running teams were making their way through the finish line. {The military teams started at 6:30 am.}
I’m not sure how it happened, but I finished. My worst time ever, but I finished. I also scored a free loaf of Roman Meal bread. How hilarious is that? Yep, the Roman Meal bread company was sponsoring the event and giving away free loves of bread to all the finishers. Nice.
And as an added bonus, I also got a picture with Mr. Seattle Sonic guy. 😉
As we were walking back to the car, The Girl mentioned we should run the Seattle Rock n’ Roll Marathon in 2 weeks. And you thought I was crazy. Ha! I think my daughter just might be a little nuttier than I am. 😉
Happy Sunday everyone, may your day be full of surprises.
