Race for Research 5k

It wasn't muggy at all
 Nothing says fun like running a 5k in Atlanta in July, but when it's for a good cause...

A good friend of mine asked us to join him in running on his team with the Southeastern Brain Tumor Foundation.  Actually his wife is Janet, my long lost, six foot gorgeous running partner from years ago.  They and their two year old twins, Coleman and Carter, put together a very fun team of runners and enticed us with promises of a delicious BBQ afterwards.  This race was especially a good time because Jared's brain tumor scans came back all clear that same week, so we all had something to celebrate!

I ended up coercing Matt into actually pushing Jackson in his BOB although we've been running a good bit in it.  Jackson is a terrible running partner and falls asleep halfway through our run... hardly motivating!  At least he thinks the running stroller is comfy :)  Daddy was pretty speedy for never having pushed the BOB before.  We came in first out of the strollers in our group!  I think the official finish time was somewhere around 32:30.  Not exactly a podium finish, but not terrible for a stroller run.
