Ran for the first time today in Florida. My family and I are here on vacation. I ran four miles with my wife. After that we went to Disney World and each pushed a stroller all around the park. The  kids had a blast.  We had fun too.  The weather here is hot and humid.

Ran the I-Drive 5K run today in Orlando, FL with my wife and my brother. We are on vacation here and decided to run a race.

This was my wifes first race. She only started running about four months ago. I ran with her the whole race and gave her support and encouragement along the way. The race had over 1000 runners. It was the biggest 5k I have ever ran.

Susie did awesome. She was shooting for 10 minute miles. The first mile was right at 10:00, and the second mile was right at 10:00. After that she was still feeling great so we picked up the pace and set a goal to come in under 30. When we crossed the line, our chip time was 29:58. It was an excellent race for Susie's first. She is going to be in good shape by the time her half marathon comes around.

After the race we spent the day at Disney World. It was our last day at Disney World and the last day of our vacation, so we tried to get in anything that we had missed. It's been a fun week.

My brother did good on his race too. He came in ahead of us at a time of 27:26.
