Mother's Day 2013 ~ Doesn't everyone's Mother's Day start off with a quick 5K run? Mine did! My friend, who has a 22 month old and is 22 weeks pregnant, celebrated her Mother's Day with me at Run Like a Mother in Magnuson Park. I've run with Teresa twice before, and both times she beat me. Yesterday, however was my day! I beat her by a whopping 46 seconds. Heck, I'll take it. So, she's 5+ months pregnant, that worked in my favor! I had my best time yet at 27:30. Awesome! I think the course was a bit short, but even so, it was my fastest time. I finished 9th in my age bracket of 44 women and 85th overall in the pack of 423. Tim and Kaitlyn both got up early to support me in my run. After the run, the 3 of us headed to Starbucks for some much earned caffeine and breakfast sandwiches. Later my Mom came over for steaks on the grill and family game time.
