Brookings Marathon, SD π♀️ 3:06:59
I’ve been so excited to blog about this Amazing Day!! π I’ll try to include as many details as my brain remembers so I can look back on it...for future race reference. Heading to Brookings, SD Kyle and I drove and picked up Rick and Tamara in Eden Prairie, it was right on our way and really nice to ride together. The drive was nothing to brag about (lots of farm land and windmills) but we had fun conversations and found a Subway to stop at for the guys to grab some food. The drive for Chad and Linda was a bit longer than ours. Leah, Mandy, and Jennie weren’t too far back and we all met in Brookings late afternoon, grabbing our own for dinner and connecting later. So glad we all made it safe! Race day! We all piled in Mandy’s mini van...notice the awesome Mom messages written on her vehicleπ (I sure wish the casino lady woulda been more excited about our marathon van!) You could feel the excitement and nerves in the air all the way to the race. Once we arrived we took this photo-
