10 on 10: January and a Race











Ahhh, that's only 9! So, I think my last photo will be...




This guy! Not only because I like him, but also because he deserves recognition. Steve's going to be running in next November's New York City Marathon!

Last Saturday, we traveled to Bellingham where Steve ran a half marathon time of one hour and eighteen minutes. Since the NYC Marathon is so competitive, one of the only ways to run in it is to qualify in advance. He kicked butt...and qualified.

And a fourth place finish isn't too shabby either...

Lake Samish, Bellingham. Nope, not Lake SA-mmam-ish. Not QUITE that cool. But pretty all the same. ;)
