Back to the Beach 2 Miler May 29th

Time to go back in time again! I'm getting caught up on my blogging:)

Back to the Beach 2 mile race was Friday May 29th out in Kenner at the Back to the Beach festival.

It was a good time. I decided I had never run less than 2 miles for a race so I would run the 1/2 mile. I ended up winning the 1st female and got to run through the NOTC banner for the second time ever!
Then came the 2 mile, I started out alright, feeling good, then I hit the 1st mile at 6:45 which was a bit fast so of course I slowed down for the second mile and ended up comming in 5th female at 14:05. Not my best time, not my worst time, just o.k. Santilla finished 1st female and Doug 2nd Male. That's me in the blue tank top...




getting my award on stage


After the race I listened to the Bag of Donuts with Santilla, Doug and Drew.

Here are some pictures of us with our "nice" awards.



Bar-a-thon

ok so I am way behind in my blogging....bare with me we're going back in time.....

May 15th Barathon


Quite possibly one of the most fun nights of the year. 6 bars 6 miles 6 beers.

You start at Le Bon Temps then proceed to run to 5 other bars, at each bar you drink a beer. The most fun part is that there is no route to follow so drunk people are running free all over uptown, through audubon park etc. It really is a great time! Oh and there is the Watermelon sacrifice at the end of the night. I can't even explain it you just have to see it for yourself.




This year Corey joined me for his 2nd Bar-a-thon and we took our time, had lots of fun. Next year though he's on his own, I want to win a trophy!:)
Here are some photos, enjoy.
