Boulder Boulder

 
The Boulder Boulder is one of the largest 10K's in the country with over 50,000 participants.  50,000!  After I walked with Ryan to the start line, I made my way to the 2nd floor of a parking garage to snap this photo of all the runners lined up to start. The crowds were incredible. 

Ryan wanted to finish around 50 minutes, so I knew I had just enough time to make my way back to the finish line inside the Colorado University football stadium.

I hope all the runners felt like rock stars too.  What a finish line. 


We planned this fabulous idea of Ryan wearing a super bright shirt so I could spot him from above.  Yeah, look at all those neon colors running right along with him, haha.



 Ryan rocked this race, his first 10k, in 54 minutes! 


Afterward, we meet up with our friends Matt & Ashley who also ran the race earlier in morning and did amazing!  Ashley had her best time ever and Matt got 12 overall.  OVERALL!

So proud of all of them.

  3. He SMOKED my 10k time! My best has been 1HR, but I'm a girl. That means I get to run slower ;)

    I love how sporty you guys are, keep it up!
