Weekend in Phoenix

We went to phoenix for the weekend. Mainly so I could run a 10k. I've had the goal for a while to break 50 min in the 10k (I know that doesn't sound impressive to you hard core runners), and I'm happy to report that I DID IT! (49:09 gun time, :01 according to my watch). Not that it matters because I was just racing myself, but I should mention that I placed first in my division (Male 25-29) and 34 out of 418 overall.

Me happy that it's overAfter the race Drew didn't feel like having his picture taken and right after this picture we noticed that we were totally blocked in by cars (just like the red car behind me). Thankfully Paige and I pulled off some fancy manuvering and we were just able to squeeze by some cars to get out.

Of course no trip to Phoenix would be complete with out a meal at IN-N-OUT

Twice


We did the usual Phoenix stuff like go to IKEA, Anthem Park and the Outlets in Anthem. Don't you just love Phoenix weather in February!



We had some "tired" moments


But overall we had a good time. Funny things Drew kept saying: "lets go to kleenex (phoenix)" when we were already in Phoenix, "I want to go to the hotel", "I want to go to the train park".

Congrats Justin! I'm impressed, it takes me like 2 weeks to go that far!. I wish the weather in Utah were more like the weather in kleenex.

I agree about InN Out...I go every time we're down there or anywhere near one..on the way to Vegas especially! If they had one here in flag..I'd be so fat!! I'd crawl there on my hands and kness...seriously!
