4am...

I thought the 5am weekday wake-up time was bad.  The kids have zero period.  4am on a Saturday is worse...  Really, it is.   

Today was the final race,
before League finals.
Only one more race.

It was held at the INFAMOUS
Mt. SAC College Campus
(with no traffic about 45 mins from our house)

We drove the kids separately from the bus, and stayed all day.

Logan's Race - 7:17am (first Capo race)
Krystin's Race - 12:50pm (last Capo race, of course!)

When we arrived at the school it was dark and FREEZING - 
Like, 50 degrees.. BRRR

I mean it was DARK AND COLD!
 BRRRR




The sun was just barely up when Logan was to race!
SO COLD!

Last sip of water before the race.
How they can drink and run with water cramps is beyond me,
but they can and do.




It was a great race and Logan was awesome!


Hanging
 Getting a bit silly
I mean we only had almost 6 hours til the next race...

This is a HUGE event.
People from all over are there.
So... They have  booths to check out.
One of which is the Marines booth.
They always have a pull-up bar and if you can do so many pull-ups they give you a shirt.
Well, if you are a guy.
Most girls can't do pull-ups well,
so they are just required to pull-up and hold it for 90 secs.
Krystin thought that was lame and did the pull-ups.
Yah, she probably embarrassed the boys around her

 Yes.
She got the shirt.
And Yes, this is her second Marine shirt.

As the day moved a long.
IT GOT HOT.
So, HOT.
Like over 90's HOTTTT!



Todd, Logan and I were trying to find shady spots to stay cooler in.
The entire place is surrounded with PINE TREES...
I am SO allergic to them,
so we settled on a nice cement area.

Logan chose to sit directly in the middle of the walk way.
It was funny.

I felt like I was going to PUKE, I was sooo HOT.
Then, it was time for Krystin to run.
Poor Krystin.
Really.

But, she did AMAZING!


 They were spraying the girls as they finished.
 They had water stations (MUCH NEEDED)
 and
Even a quick rinse station.
 It worked like a charm!
She felt great within minutes

There were a LOT of people that weren't able to finish - too hot,
so the next race they shortened it from 3 miles, to 2! 

All-in-all,
Freezing, SUPER HOT, GREAT DAY!
I love you guys!
Great job!
