Thanks Cheryl! It is a half-marathon 13 miles. I have done two of them, but the last one was six years ago. We have done Bay to Breakers, which is an 8 mile footrace here in the City for the last 18 years, but I always wonder if I can do an extra five miles. We walk more than run except for at the starting blocks where if you don't run you will get run down. Yikes : )

I enjoyed reading about your family outdoor get-together. How wonderful that everybody gets along, lucky boys. Food sounded wonderful, too!
