Army 10 Miler

We did it...we finished the Army 10 Miler race in Washington, D.C., all in less than 2 hours! Way to go Team Household 6. For those of you that don't know what the term "Household 6" stands for; in the Army it is commonly used by the spouse who is in the Army (our husbands) referring to their "commander" of the house (us, the wives) because we normally have to take care of everything. An example of using the term would be, "Household 6 told me I have to be home by dinner time today". I hope this better explains it. After a great visit from Sarah and Addie in Charlottesville, we were then blessed with Megan and Rick's presence in Charlottesville as well for 2 nights. We headed to D.C. on Saturday and walked around Georgetown all day. Sunday was the race, which I will admit I was not looking forward to. I blame the peer pressure from the girls for me even participating in this event. And even though I feel like a 90-year-old woman and that my knees are no longer attached to my legs, I have to admit it felt good to accomplish the task of running 10 miles. We all ran the race under 2 hours and our team as a whole came in 9th out of 18 teams. Not too shabby!! I've included some pictures of the race below.
