Crystal Lake went well --- I ran at the end --- it poured rain all day. Probably was the cause of my second stress fracture ---

We loved Hawaii --- My foot was sore the whole time there so not a lot of walking for me -- but we swam a lot and dove (scuba) twice....really neat!

The place we stayed in was beautiful and relaxing. The only things missing were barbecues and a decent breakfast. Otherwise we would definitely stay there again. Beautiful location in Wailea, Maui.

Here we are on a sunset sail in Maui, HI --- 2009

Bike Enthusiast

My latest thing is volunteering at running races. Since I've been sidelined from running because of Stress Fractures in my feet --- I have been doing more biking. This weekend I'm an escort for a 15K bike race -- Stockade-athon. Should be fun --- I get to ride in front of the lead runners and just behind the police escort. I'm kind of excited about it --- will only be two of us.

DH is probably volunteering as a course marshall --- also an interesting job -- but more standing around. I love biking and this will help keep me in shape having to stay ahead of the runners.
