October 2003
We took some time off and went on a nice, relaxing vacation to
Lake Tahoe. Relaxing, except for the marathon. Yes, we entered our first
marathon. Our times were slow, 5:30, but the most important thing was finishing
the event. It was grueling and painful, but very rewarding. And the scenery
could not be beat. We started at Tahoe City in 30° weather at 7:15 in the
morning. Our shoes crackled on the frosted grass.
We did great for the first 18 or so miles, running a respectable
10:30 pace, but ran out of gas a bit on the long uphill to Emerald Bay. No
matter, we finished, and we are proud of each other, and ourselves.
Also, we went to the Arizona State Fair October 24! Great fun.

We don't smoke, drink, or gamble. So why are we in a casino? |
