Bix Weekend 2010

It's no secret that Bix weekend is one of my favorite weekends of the summer.  Our local 7 mile race is fun for the whole family and we look forward to it all year.  We were sad that Chris had to be out of town for school this year so he missed out on most of the fun but we had enough for him too! ;)

The boys ran the Jr. Bix race on Friday night....

Thanks to Memaw for helping out....K-Man wouldn't have made it without you! :)
The boys were happy with their victories!


A highlight of my weekend was meeting 2009 Bix 7 and New York Marathon winner Meb Keflezighi....everyone thought I was crazy but hey for a crazy runner like me it was a thrill to meet someone that runs a full marathon in about the time it takes me to run a half. :)


My boys and I celebrating a great Jr. Bix race....
The boys weren't the only ones having fun running....here I am with some of my mom friends after a great 7 mile Bix race on Saturday morning...
My friend Tricia has been training for this for a year!  I told her how much fun it was and I don't think she was disappointed. :)

Chris arrived back in town just in time to be my designated driver so that I could celebrate my 59:58, 7 mile Bix time, and Tricia's first Bix.....
A little out of order but here are a couple of cute pictures of the boys enjoying the sprinklers after the Jr. Bix....
It was a great Bix weekend.....can't wait for next year...and having daddy along to enjoy the weekend with us! :)
