john got another race under his belt today, and the weather ended up cooperating for a very nice day! john and david ran the 5 mile race, both finishing in under 50 minutes. tony, harry, corinne and i were there to cheer them on to their strong finishes.
following the race, we all hopped on our bikes (and tested out corinne and david's new bike trailer for the kids) and took advantage of the beautiful day and the nice paved trails at the valley forge park riding over 3+ miles. whew - it was rough and i know i will definitely be feeling it tomorrow. perhaps i'll have to sit on a pillow tomorrow at work...but it was worth it spending time with my family and being outdoors (and burning extra calories was a bonus too)!
following our fun day at the park, we had a great lunch together at shenk's in collegeville (an old haunt of david's) where we dined on broasted chicken (oh so healthy after a race and bike ride, i know), but when you pull in the parking lot and catch a wiff of it, there was no other option when you saw the menu...and we had all worked up an appetite at that point.

Way to go John!! I am so impressed with each race and can't wait to see what his time will be at the next one. Now if only I could get my hubby on his mountain bike and start racing again! He is slowly getting there...
Christy~ I can't believe you biked 3 miles...that's awesome! Keep up the great work with getting more exercise each day. I will be looking at your for inspiration once the baby finally gets here! :)
