Eilers 6: Beach 2 Bay!

This past weekend, Brent and I ran in the Beach 2 Bay Marathon Relay for the 1st time! It was a lot of fun. We had two teams that we got together to go up there and run. Brent and I were on different teams so it was fun being 'competitive' with each other. His team consisted of him, his uncle, 3 cousins and a friend. My team consisted of me, two good girl friends, their husbands and another good guy friend of ours. My team beat Brent's team, of course!!
Brent headed down early with Ezra and his buddy, David, who ran on my team, to go fishing. They didn't catch anything, but had a good time. My girls and I met up with David's wife, Chantel, and her girls to make our roadtrip down there on Friday. Once we got to the condo, we unloaded and headed out to dinner to load up on pasta for the big race the next morning. We didn't really do much that evening but hand out the bib #'s and shirts to the rest of the teammates.
Saturday morning was the big race. It was a cool/humid/windy morning. We had a great time running. My team placed 54th in our division (out of 1,034 teams) and Brent's team finished 96th in the same division.
After the race we changed and got the kids ready for an afternoon at the beach! It was so much fun. The kids LOVED the water, which was pretty chilly at first, and loved playing in the sand. We spent a couple hours on the beach because it felt so nice outside. There was a cool breeze the whole time, so it wasn't HOT!
After the beach, we came back to the condo for quiet time and rest. We ended the night with burgers and a swim in the condo pool.
Sunday we packed up and headed out by 10 because Ezra had a t-ball game we needed to get to by 2:30. It was such a great weekend. Hopefully we will be doing it again next year!
