From Today’s Two Charity Runs…

Up stupidly early for a cancer charity run that Donny Osmond backs and was there.  Kris just kicked my ass, but I still finished four minutes faster than my time at the Vegas Strong run two weeks ago. It felt slower, but I was faster and got 4th in my age category. But Kris got 3rd in her age group. Not at all sure what got into her, but I stayed with her and ahead of her for the first two miles, then she just left me in the dust.

Then a great breakfast at a favorite restaurant, The Squeeze Inn, and home for a shower and long nap.

Back up for a quick lunch, then got on our Zombie Run shirts. This run was not timed and I planned on only walking a mile or so of it, but Lisa and I walked a mile and a half while Kris ran the same distance. Great fun with all the costumes and kids. And maybe one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen here in Vegas. Wow.

Then the three of us had a nice dinner before heading back downtown.

Fun day all the way around. Here are some pictures.

    Wow, quite a day for anyone! The zombie runs can be so much fun. My family and I were in the Dallas area a few ago and did a zombie walk/run called Guts and Gory. It included some challenges and puzzles on a forest path course. And lots of zombies. My daughter and I walked the course, and the end we faced my wife and son, who had dressed up as zombies. Good times.
