Bloomsday run, 2009!

May 03, 2009

Woohoo....my daughter and I finished another Bloomsday this year!!!!  It was cold and a bit dreary but huge crowds and meeting a great lady to jog along with us made it a wonderful day. 12K....7.46 miles! (Last year's time was 2 hr.s 12 min and we hope we made it in under 2 hrs this year, don't know yet.)  It is amazing to be able to do this physically after so many years of poor and declining health.  Neither my daughter or I brought a camera this year and tried to take a few pics with our cell phones but mine can't be uploaded (we're too cheap to have internet on our cell carrier, haha) and I haven't gotten any from my daughter yet.  But I promise, we DID FINISH and have the t-shirts to prove it.  One of these days I'll get a photo uploaded...maybe even the one from the finish line if I can find it online.  So far, no luck on that. 

I hope everybody seeking to improve their health through either weight loss surgery or non-surgical dieting gets a chance to experience a fun event like this with someone they love.  (And in our case here....52,000 other people!)
