Day 3.

Today was the race I signed up to run from Georgetown to Idaho Springs. 13 miles, downhill. It was an early morning but beautiful as we went up and over the Divide; the mountains lit up as we arrived at the start. Kari and the kids hung out waiting for the race to start, and we all tried to stay warm as it was in the mid 40's at race time. A bit later, we walked around Idaho Springs, ate some delicious mountain pizza pie at Beaux Jo's, and celebrated a day of fun, food, and no altitude illness. Our only hike today was cut short by an early evening storm that caught us about a half mile from the van. Cold rain,lightening, and a bit of hail sent us for cover and for home. Some hot tub, ice cream, and games later, we are all ready to sleep and do it again tomorrow. On the docket- church at Rocky Mtn Bible in Frisco, and Copper Mtn to play.
