Hell yeah!
Saturday July 4th Heather and I ran in the Peachtree Road Race (10k/6.2 miles) with our friend Molly. The Peachtree is one of the biggest road races in the world, with 55,000 participants. Yes, that number is correct.
Going into it, I had the mindset that I just wanted to run it once to say I had, because it's one of those things that Atlantans just have to do at some point in their lives if they're at all active.
Holy crap. I had a blast. I want to run it every year!
There was some craziness and confusion getting runners and spectators to the event and deciding where/when to meet up, etc., but despite the occasional bumps in the road (no pun intended) it was a fantastic day.
Among the highlights:
-The guy wearing nothing but a speedo and a wig trying to freak dance Heather during the race
- People shouting "Go Wonder Women!" when they saw us
- The drunk crew who were carrying beer and flags with them while trundling down Peachtree
- The woman I think was trying to hire me to make outfits for her and her sister next year
- The Chik-fil-A Chicken Biscuits Brian handed us at the finish. He's a rocking husband and the best fan a gal could ask for.
