So I was able to put my jealousy aside for this one.
This past weekend (Saturday) my wife and my mom ran the Geaux Run Cajun Cup 10k in down town Lafayette. This is probably the most fun race anyone can ever do. I ran it for the first time in 2009 and it's been a goal to run it again. 2010 I was in San Antonio for a Half Marathon with long time friend and training partner Jeremy Zenon, and this year unfortunately I was on DL with a stress fracture in my shin.
Registered to run were me, Ashley, mom & dad. Dad is injured too. Well my wife felt under trained and my mom felt old, but I put my persuasive skills to the test and got them to run it. And like all things wonderful they had a blast. Their target goals were 1:15, final times: 1:11 for Ashley & 1:13 for my Mom. AWESOME!!!!!
I was/am very proud of them both. They were enthralled to report they ran nonstop for the entire length of the race. Excited and elated, they are planning the next 10k or better, with better times.
