Seattle Rock n' Roll!!!

My long weekend in Seattle was a blast! I never get tired of visiting this city. Despite some leg pain, I had a great run; my fastest half marathon yet(I credit the many down hill parts:). There were fun funky cool bands every mile of the run and it was great being part of such a fun event with nearly 30,000 runners. The weather was cool in the morning(perfect for our run) and sunny in the afternoon most days. We fit lots of other fun activities into the weekend too. We took the ferry to Bainbridge Island, sampled many yummy restaurants, cheered on the Sounders, and had a blast celebrating our run on Saturday night. Running and great friends, it doesn't get any better!

Seward Sea Life Cruise

Had a fabulous time cruisin' in Seward with my Horned Frog BFF Jill who is here for her summer AK visit from Austin. We had a chilly day in sea-ward, but were lucky to see sea otters, humpback whales, doll sheep, sea lions and lots of birds. I love playing tourist when guests come to town.

June Happenings

It has been a jam packed first week of June! Thursday kicked off the weekend with one of my biggest events for work, The Employee Picnic for all of our ANC campus and thier families. We had bouncy houses, face painting, snow cones, animals from the AK zoo and some great sunshine. Despite a few minor glitches(a spawned out bucking mechanical salmon and hot dog hoarding employees), it was a really fun event for everyone. The Twlight 12k on Friday evening, was my first official running event of the season. It is such a fun run all around downtown Anchorage with great running buddies and moose's tooth pizza and beer as the reward. Sunday I volunteered at the inagural Walk/Run for Mojo sponsored by the Alaska chapter of the SPCA. I was surrounded by running
enthusiasts and adorable dogs, two of my favorites. Cheers to summer !
