winners!!

busy busy. this morning we got up and headed over to gasworks. we met up with feather and dave and took off on a 10 mile run. it was long but it was fun to run with them and eric and the kids, too. after we packed up the kids and went to south seatac for the mountain bike race. eric had originally planned on going but with this new strain of illness that hit the family in these past few days he felt a 10 miler would be easier on him then a mtn bike race. we got there, unloaded the kids and their bikes and lined them up for the kids race. the course was not marked but instead wick ran around the parking area and the kids followed. some of the kids, our included needed assistance, but seamus did race most of it on her own, which is no small feat considering it was off road and muddy. she even lapped sirus, who did only one lap while she did two. after the race all the kids were invited onto the podium. everyone wanted to be on the top, including seamus, but since she did win her division and all, i am glad she pushed her way front and center. sirus was happy being on the step with the 3 on it. each of the kids got a water bottle with kids clif bars, which were a big hit. that was some good practice for seamus for her triathlon coming up on may 31.

only 9 days left.
