Hop Hop Half Marathon

I ran the Hop Hop Half Marathon on Saturday, with a huge shout out to my personal cheerleading crew, Matt, Dean, Debbie, Michael, and of course, 'lil Oakie.

It was a good run with a beautiful course along the Columbia River. I wasn't sure what to expect during the race since a couple weeks before I hurt my hamstring and couldn't even run without it hurting. Fortunately, I was blessed with a cold the week of the race, which forced me to not run, which helped my leg heal. Funny how that works. All in all, I felt great on race day and was able to finish in 1:46:33.

My cheerleading crew was also my personal paparazzi and here is proof.

Oakyn was biting the medal to make sure it was real gold. It was.

Finish!

I couldn't help but smile every time I saw my sweet little Oakie.

Don't mess with this girl.

Oaklyn was totally obsessed with the Easter Bunny.
