Yesterday I walked the San Jose Rock n Roll Half Marathon. It was great! There were over 8,000 participants, a bunch of bands and lots of energy. We were up at 5:30 to drive to the start, wandered around and found our corrals and then stretched, visited and waited. Our friends Rob & Sarah were also walking the race and Emrys gets kudos as the official photographer.
I wanted to finish in less than 3 hours and just barely made it with a finishing chip time of 2:57:35 which works just fine for me! The rest of the day was spent hobbling around and driving back to Fresno from San Jose and dinner with Rob & Sarah's extended family.
The other part of this trip has been an amazing visit with our Goddaugher Emma and her sister Katie. The are quite the team. Emma is 16 months old and her favorite things are "kit-ty cat" and "pup-py dog". Emrys is the proud uncle: Emma mastered her own version of "Emrys" before coming up with a "Sara" which are more like "Emmas" and "Aara". We'll take what we can get.
It's been a great time. We'll head back to NY tomorrow.
