Birthday Blowout

Vanessa and Zee arranged a surprise get together for me on Saturday at 7:30 AM. It consisted of about 15 runners who I spend quite a bit of time with. They put on a little skit, a PowerPoint presentation, and two beautiful cakes were devoured and downed with some thick Java. Good times.

On Sunday we took a bus to the hills for a birthday run. The trail was set by an ex Green Beret and the short version of this very long story was that we started at 10:00 AM and finished a 2:40 PM. It would have been more beautiful if we would have slowed down to take in the awesome scenery, but alas we had many hills and rivers to cross to finish in 4 hrs. 40 minutes. We started with about 27 people but in the end about 10 people finished. The last person was in at 7 hrs. It was all that and the bag of chips.

On Monday Vanessa and I snuck out for a nice romantic dinner and then finished the night with Zee.
