Race 4: Indianaplois Santa Hustle 5k and Half Marathon

Where's Ginger? 
 
Santa Hustle Indianapolis 5k and Half Marathon
On December 16th, we will be hitting the streets of Indy to do the Santa Hustle 5k! I am so looking forward to this race. First, everyone will be dressed in holiday gear: Santa hat, Santa beard, Santa dri-fit shirt and any extra holiday props one would want to add to the ensemble.  Second, Christmas music will be played throughout the course. Third, cookies and candy will be served along the course! That is what convinced me to do this race. We can’t go wrong! Along with the  miles put in during the race, there will be many more pre-race miles put in on Saturday SHOPPING!

Race 2 Recap: WN 5k Zombie Run

 
 
 
Bat Girl, Pirate Girl, Wonder Girl!!!!
 
Zombie Run!
Saturday, November 3, 2012
What a great way to spend a Saturday evening!  The smell of fall was in the air, and colorful leaves were crunching under our tennis shoes.  We were given two flags (think flag football) and the object was to not let the zombies get your flags. If they did get your flags, you were “dead”.  There was no shortage of Zombies trying to get our flags. Also, add to the mix that many of the zombies were students and we are teachers. Yikes!  Sarah...er, um I mean Pirate Girl was able to hold on to both of her flags for most of the race. In the end, the zombies wonL  Pirate Girl came up with a great strategy to use against the flag, grabbing zombies next year. It is top secret but I will say this-the zombies won’t stand a chance!!  We had a lot of fun participating in the First Annual Zombie 5k Run! Thanks Carole and Sarah!  Our next running adventure will be in a couple of weeks. We will be doing the Turkey Trot!
