Even though this meet was after a long day of school in the hot humid weather Brody still beat his time by 3 seconds from his last race (15:47) and ran with the varsity boys this week! He kept his own pace the entire time and turned the jets on at the finish line!! It’s so fun watching him run, he’s a natural! He had his usual dan group…Me, Clayton and Papa but this week Noah also came to watch before his baseball practice.
Sunday was race day and I got to do my morning run all through the monuments and through DC! With all the national guards, secret service and police presence instead this was the safest day EVER for a run by myself through the city! I couldn’t help but just think about how thankful I was for our freedom and the country we have the entire time I was running so literally every guard, police, etc that I passed I thanked them for their service and their responses just made me want to go hug them!! They’d say “it’s my honor”, “ thank you for your support”, “thank you!” and some of these guys/girls were just teenagers…only 18 and they have risked their life for ours!
Most amazing sunrise views!
Just finished one of the most memorable weekends ever at the Freedom 250 race with Sheryl and Ryan and their friends!! We met the nicest people all weekend and DC was absolutely beautiful! With luck our early morning flight was cancelled which allowed me to do one more early morning run through the monuments before heading back home.
Thanks to Ryan and Team Penske for getting us into all the top notch events and seats like the Freedom 250 cocktail reception Friday evening with all the big wigs that made this event happen along with all the drivers!! It was so cool!
Saturday’s garage tour that Ryan got us setup with where we got to see all the cars and drivers! Then we toured the city since this was mine and Claytons first time to DC.
