28th Bolder Boulder
Bolder Boulder 2006
Originally uploaded by janets.
It was a great Memorial Day weekend, capped by another fun Bolder Boulder 10K. Check out the results from my last 10 races there.
I bested last year’s time, running it in 53:19. Mom also ran a great race. The weather was just a touch cool - perfect for running. Thanks to Mom & Dad for having me over for the night before - avoiding traffic and being with my very best running support group is a great way to prepare for the race.
Carrie’s Mom Celine, and her sister Amy and her husband Karl were in town for the holiday weekend. They were here to see Ashley’s CCHS graduation, and they also helped us build a deck. It’s been an eventful few days. You can see lots of pictures in my Flickr photoset.
Update: You can see the training run I consistently used thanks to this cool map at runningmap.com.
Hope you all had a good holiday weekend!

Thanks Mom!
No matter how many times I run the Bolder Boulder, it is always a huge accomplishment. And, in the not too distant future, I think another generation will join in the fun - Tobey!
