ET Run - Area 51 in Nevada












Not sure why, but Christee, Nicole, and I decided to go to Vegas and do a mignight run this past weekend. We got to Vegas at 10pm on Friday, played a bit, then hung out on Saturday. We loaded a bus at 9pm on Saturday, got lost for an hour, and got to Area 51 at midnight, the time the marathon runners were to start. Needless to say, the run started late. I got dropped off for the half marathon and started running at 12:40AM. Yes, AM! Finished in 2:04:29 which I was thrilled about. Met back up with the girls (they did the 10k), boarded a bus, and back to Vegas we went. Got to Vegas at 7am, showered and on the road to Phoenix at 8:15am. Crazy sleepless weekend, but very fun! As you can see, we dressed up as aliens for the run. I also drew pics on our shirts and outlined them in glow paint. Good times!!

Poor Bubba...

Found out that Rusty has arthritis in his elbow and he may not be able to do long runs anymore. He's limping pretty bad today and the pain meds don't appear to be helping much. I can only imagine the hell he is going to raise when I start taking he and Ditto for a short run, then I bring him back and leave with just Ditto to finish the miles. Sorry neighbors!
