On a whim I called my hubby and said I want to sign up for the Chicago Hot Chocolate 15K race. Can we/I do it? HE has to be supportive because I cannot just pick up and leave early in the morning. Someone needs to juggle wiping butts, noses and tears. Thankfully he says let's all go spend the night downtown in a hotel and cheer Mommy on!
I expected TONS of samples of chocolate at the expo. There were was not a lot at all. Boo!! Love this giant hot cocoa mug.
1. Kids cheering me (who cares if I helped them make the signs...they are adorable!)
2. Seeing a photo later of me on the big tv. I felt like a star when a friend texted me later on saying I was "famous."
This was my longest race post babies and I crushed it! I felt fantastic and slightly emotional when running because I know how hard it was to lose the 30-40 pounds after each pregnancy. It is not a cake walk (although I sure do like cake!). Not bad finishing results...not bad at all Momma!
