run run run

do you see me? im somewhere in there...i realize it might be hard to pinpoint me bc there are like 16K or so other runners. yeah, yesterday was the 30th annual capitol 10K. ck and i ran it last year and although it's a very hilly run, we decided to run it again. this time joey joined us but not really b/c he got a timing chip and started 15 min. before us. ck and i knocked off about 10 min off our time from last year which was pretty exciting..our unofficial time was around the 56 min mark. about 9 min mile splits and we ran the whole thing! however, the winner's time was 29:41. yeah, thats right...4 1/2 minute splits. absolutely ridiculous.

that was probably the highlight of the weekend. we ate at hula hut afterwards which pretty much canceled out the fact that we had worked out...but it was dang good and i don't regret it one bit.

and while we're on the topic of food. a pluckers (wings sports bar/rest.) opened up a block or so from my house. that's dangerous b/c that place is pretty darn good...im quickly becoming a big fan. try their sweet potato fries.

sonic has been advertising a new banana pudding shake. well i got one. and it was fantastic.

and you wonder why i work out all the time...do you see all the crap i eat?
