I feel like the last week or so has flown by in a blur. I haven't posted since last Tuesday but gosh we have been busy.
On Friday we held Kyle's promotion ceremony and while I will be sharing a post just for that soon, I did want to share a few photos. It was such a special day.
On Saturday, we were able to sleep in a bit before getting the day started. We headed to our favorite local place (The Depot) for breakfast before heading off to run errands.
I was on the hunt for a dress for a wedding in March and Kyle needed to be fitted for new suits. We were successful on both accounts. We finished the day by getting our taxes done haha. Now that is a truly exciting way to end a Saturday night.
Sunday morning we were up at 5:30am to get ready for a race in Kansas City. We picked up two friends of mine and headed off to the Groundhog Run. It was held in a completely underground facility called the SubTropolis that stays between 65 and 70 degrees year round. It's a 55,000,000 sq foot manmade cave system/business complex and it is the largest in the world. They had both a 5k and a 10k, that started at different times. This actually worked out because they didn't allow strollers. I ran the 5k at 8am and Kyle ran the 10k at 10am (I'm running a half this weekend and let him have the longer distance haha).
A lot of ladies from my SLAM participated and it was a lot of fun. However, I will say that running underground was completely surreal. The scenery never changed so that messed with our minds a bit haha. It got really hot in some areas and really cool in others when a breeze would come through.
I was really happy with my time and despite the conditions I was only 10 seconds off my best time. Kyle was thrilled with his time as well.
I've been doing my best to log more miles lately and later in the afternoon I met up with friends and knocked out another 4 miles. It felt great!
After the craziness over the last week, we enjoyed a quiet night at home. It was definitely needed.
Hope you all had a great weekend!
