The 10k

After almost ten years of marriage, it wouldn’t be a surprise if there were no surprises left for Eric and I. But he still surprises and amazes me.

His latest? He participated, for the 2nd time, in the Nike Human Race. Last year he did it, but he walked most of it and it took him about two hours.

This year he has put in over 200 miles JUST in training for this. And he completed it in personal record time – 6.23 miles in 1:03! That’s about 10 minutes a mile!

The boys and I had a great time cheering him on – we put signs up around the route and then drove the route and cheered him on.

A drive-by cheer!

I am so proud of E and so wonderfully surprised at this place we are finding ourselves in. Way to go E!!
