Marathon Man

Ed (Katie's dad) ran the Calgary Stampede Marathon this morning and had a great race. Even more impressive when you know he is 60 this year and looked great crossing the finish line. Great work, Dad -- we're proud of you!!

The rest of our weekend was filled with tons of biking -- how great is that?! We rode Elbow Loop on Saturday together - both feeling excellent throughout the 44km mountain bike trail. And then on Sunday we hooked up with Mark & Alicia and rode downtown to see Ed during the race and rode back home making it a 60km outing on our road bikes. It was pretty much a recovery ride, since we pushed ourselves @ Elbow Loop...but the wind coming back home made it feel like a workout.

Family, Friends and Biking -- doesn't get much sweeter.
Enjoy your week!
