Pictures from Run for Life Half Marathon

October 17, 2010 | Uncategorized

 

       Good evening! I hope everyone has had a fabulous day! We did some more cleaning out at Bobby’s dad’s house and packing at our own house! We just took the girls for a ride on the golf cart, they love it! Now watching more football and cooking dinner. My Saints played well today, I am proud of them. Ok, on to the pictures. Sorry the quality is bad, I took a picture of the pictures on the computer, but, you get the idea.

This is one a friend took so it is of good quality. My leg looks so weird!

This was around mile five. As you can see, I am still smiling and thinking this is a good idea!

I don’t even remember anyone taking this one

This was at the end, right before the finish. I was in pain!

Finish line!

Sorry about the quality once again!

I know I said this before but I have some old track pictures from High School I found…hilarious! Hopefully I will get them scanned this week and get them on the blog. I look like such a nerd.

Sorry for the short post today has been super busy, I have barely even been on the computer!

Knee update: I am pretty sure I am having IT band issues. I pronate, it hurts more going downhill, all the classic symptoms. I have been icing, elevating, and foam rolling (painful!) as well as some other things so hopefully I will be good to go!

QOTD: do you ever get good photos of yourself at races? If you have one on your blog, link it up in the comments so everyone can see!

    Your leg doesn’t look weird-it just looks muscular!

    These are great pictures of you running your half.

      October 18, 2010 at 8:40 am

      not as many ppl dressed up last year (at least for the disney half) b/c it was 23 degrees! I haven’t decided yet. We will see when it gets closer!

    Your race pictures are great! Congrats! I always look hunched over and weird in race photos. I’ve yet to see a good one. This is the year, though!

  10. Becky says

    October 18, 2010 at 8:59 am

    You look great in your photos!

    My official race photos are always terrible, so my little bro is my “official” photographer. He takes great photos so I’m lucky to have great memories from every race.

    • runningwithsass says

      October 18, 2010 at 9:28 am

      thats awesome! We don’t live by family and my husband always runs races with me so we never get any pictures other than seeing the official ones!

We originally got it as a solution for rainy or co We originally got it as a solution for rainy or cold days during the holidays, but it quickly became part of our weekly routine — especially for family game night or those super hot afternoons when going outside just isn’t an option.

What I love most? It gets us laughing, playing, and moving together. The games are active and designed with real child development principles in mind — which means I feel good about the screen time. And when she plays solo? I know she’s safe — no online strangers, just fun, movement, and confidence-building play.

Whether we’re all competing or she’s playing on her own, @nexplayground has become one of our favorite ways to stay active and connected as a family.
