6 Hours of El Lagarto

We headed to Lakeland for the 6 hours of El Lagarto mountain bike race. Jay and Marshall both raced along with some friends from OYM, Matt, Julie, Kip and Dave. Marshall raced up an age group in the 10-14 category because he thought the race for his age was too easy...hehe! The kids race was a little goofy, the course was not clearly marked so all of the kids went in different directions. They didn't end up giving places since it was a little crazy, but they all had a fun time! Jay completed 7 laps and rode for 5 hours and 11 minutes (he was the fastest in the 7 lap group). He finished 23 out of 50 overall, this was his 2nd mountain bike race ever! I manned the tent and passed out bottles and nutrition which was fun too! Oh yeah, and all of the races started with a potato sack race...pretty funny!

Race For the Cure 2011

Aye...so hard this year! Lily, Lisa, April and I ran in memory of Kelly Gourley, my good friend who passed away in November. In previous years Lisa and I would do the run and then do the walk with Kelly, celebrating the fact that she had been cancer free for several years. This year was our first time at the event without her and it was really difficult. She was an amazing person and I was honored to run in her memory, we are rejoicing that she is completely healed now in Heaven!

Coconut Cup #4, Amelia

Jay and Marshall competed in their first mountain bike race this weekend, they both LOVED it! Marshall raced in the kids 6-8 category and came in 2nd place! He almost passed the first place guy right at the finish line...so close! Yeah Marshall! Jay was in the Base men 30-39 category and came in 27 out of 35! He rode the majority of the first lap (about 7 miles) with a flat tire! Way to go boys!

Dyer Consequences

Jay and the kids went to the Dyer Consequences event this weekend and kicked butt! They all ran the 5k, then the kids ran the 1k and then Marshall did the kids cyclocross race. The 5k: Lily and Marshall were both first in their age groups (Jay ran with Marshall)! 1k: Lily was 1st, Marshall 2nd overall! Kids cyclocross race, Marshall was 1st overall!!!! Great job Killer Millers! Aunt Kelly was also there doing her first 5k and did an awesome job! Yeah!! Nana and Pop were there in the cheering section!
