Rex Lee Run 2011

Last Saturday, Dan and I participated in the Rex Lee Run. We both did the 5k.

Amy was nice enough to use up her Saturday morning to watch Anda and take some pictures of us.

Anda had a good time with her balloon that Amy painstakingly removed from a giant knot of balloons.

I had a general goal to come in under 30 minutes this year and a specific goal to beat my 2007 time by 7 minutes. I finished 326th overall (out of 1356) and 10th in my division (out of 144) with a gun time of 29:44.5 and a chip time of 28:11.1. In 2007 my time was 35:47.28, so if we're going by chip time, mission totally accomplished.

This is me looking like a jerk who's trying to beat these people to the finish. I'm actually just trying to beat the clock, which was displayed at the finish line.

Here is Dan being cheered on by a sasquatch and at the finish line. His gun time was 22:46.3 and his chip time was 22:25.8.

I'm not sure what his specific goals were for this year, but he came in 73rd overall and won first place in his division!

We were all very proud.

Cancer can go to hell. That's the Carter family motto.
