Capitol 10K

For the last couple of years Brandon's family has gotten together in the spring to walk the Statesmen Capitol 10K in Austin. This year I agreed to go, but wish I hadn't. The walk was very beautiful and brought back tons of memories from living there. The kids had a blast taking turns walking and being pulled by Daddy in the wagon. Brycen ran ahead of us and meet up with Gabe's girlfriend Erica and her family. Yes, I complained and complained and complained, but it didn't start until I hit mile marker 4.

First of all I HATE walking just for the fun of it, and secondly I have never walked for 6.2 miles or 3 hrs straight with no break but to use the restroom. I don't know how or why but my hip joints hurt so bad that I started crying. So for 2 miles I was in horrible pain. I didn't even care that I crossed the finish line, all I was thinking is I couldn't take another step and how the heck was I going to get to the car.. After resting in the grass for a bit, I attempted to make it back to the car, and eventually I did. It was just a horrible experience for me and I will NEVER do it again, but I am glad everyone enjoyed themselves... :)
