We are safe and sound in Wisconsin. Despite some issues at check in and a slightly delayed flight, we made it here with no major problems.
The adventures have already begun! This morning, the boys found a rabbit in the cage in my mom’s garden. Grandma told them she was going to, ahem, take it out to the country and release it. The boys called her on it and they headed out and released the luckiest rabbit in Wisconsin. I think there’s gonna be a line of bunnies this week, trying to exit the neighborhood during the amnesty LOL. Then they found a toad in the garden, who is now residing in the old aquarium. He’ll be released this evening, but I’m sure they’ll find another tomorrow.
Dad and I got in a nice four mile run, at a slightly faster than planned pace. We were aiming for about 9:40 and did closer to 9:20, despite some wicked long hills. Saturday is our 10 mile Lighthouse run.
I got an email from Beer Geek this morning about a race that he wanted me to do. Apparently Dogfish Head Brewery sponsors a race. Idiot that I am, I signed up for the 10K instead of the 5K. Duh, there’s beer at the end, why would I want to run for a longer distance? Hopefully I can switch LOL.
(The only bugs harmed in this post were those that are being fed to the toad.)
Glad you made it safe. At least the boys didn't want to keep all their found creatures. My son's still grieving that I made him release the two turtles he found in our backyard.
Glad you've arrived safely and the boys are having fun. The Dogfish Dash looks pretty cool. I know you're going to wear a costume, right? Right?
Glad you made it safe. Hopefully you will not need to cart back toads and other creatures when you leave! 🙂
zomg!! Dogfish Head sponsors a race!?!Hrms.. I just plotted it out.. A 5 hour trip to run a 5K or 10K. Ugh. Don't think my wife will go for that this year. hah. I'm definitely remembering this one, though
That sounds like your kind of race. It should get you a PR regardless – you'll want the beer ASAP!Enjoy your trip and have fun at the race with your Dad this weekend!
Glad your trip went smoothly and I can't help but sympathize with the bunny amnesty.
Yay for the lucky bunny and frog. I hope you get switched to the 5K, but if not just tell yourself that since you ran twice as far you earned twice as much beer!
Hmm, sounds like a perfect race indeed! Happy you're having a great time, and made it safe. Enjoy!
Totally sounds like your kind of race!
Looks like a great race! Good luck at the 10 miler!
Sounds like an excellent race! Wish I could partake 🙂 Glad you made it safely!
Sounds like your kind of race! Have fun and enjoy your vacation.
Beer runs are always the best! Good luck with the 10 miles!!!
ZOMG, sister, I just asked Teh 'B. if it was okay if I signed up for this one!She better be quick with the answer! It's capped at 1000!
Well that sounds like your kind of race! Safe travels.
