On Saturday June 27 we headed to Madison to meet Kathy and Brady and friends before their 1/2 marathon run on Sunday. We made it to town around 7:00 in time to join them for a nice dinner then every one retired to prepare for the race which would come early Sunday morning.
We met Kathy and Brady and many other runners before 7:00 am to ride a shuttle bus to the race site. Everyone was keyed up and ready to go and then the skies opened up with rain! It let up bit by the time we arrived at the race site, but everyone was seeking cover. Thankfully the rain stopped at the start of the race and stayed away through the event.
It was our job to entertain Brady. Turns out she is not a morning person and she was grouchy. However, a little breakfast and some juice and some time on the iPhone and she was happier.
Kathy had a good race, finishing in just over her 3 hour target which made her very happy. We did what we could to fill our time and Brady's time. If we do this again we will not take the shuttle bus, but rather drive so that we have a car available.
