Thanks giving Day Race

This thanksgiving I started it off with a 5mile race, along with 3000 other people in Garden City, its a popular thing to do, as there were a few others around the Island reaching the 1000s racing. All so they can go home and feast out on food and drink for the rest of the day. But this race was good, nice day for it. A little on the cold side, but I didnt need gloves so it wasn't to bad at all.
Before the race started I saw another person who could be a challenge, we started out the 1st mile together, so it was a little quicker then I planned, but thats ok, she dropped back and I was just chasing the guys after that.
The course was mainly flat, but had a few inclines in it.
I was the first women in 27.17, which was the course record.
I also walked away with:

Not the bag, but the camera, which is valued around $200USD so its pretty sweet upgrade on what I have, I have to play around with it more, not as easy as my other point and shot!
I also got a $35 gift card to Best buy, which is an electronic store. So thats going to Mikes imac computer he wants only $1665 to go now. hahaha I dont think so!

Here are some pics also of the race that Mike took...enjoy - not with the new camera obviously as I had not won it yet! :)

Well I am off to have left over turkey dinner - will get you those pics one of these days.

Pics

Ok, so I have been trying to send you guys some pics for awhile, have had difficulty with the computer whenever I try, I am trying again:

These pics are from
the O2S realy, they
took forever to do the realy, when our teams complete the realy in 4+ hrs and some are still out there for 8hrs and they waited for most of them to come in we didnt have all the members of our team hang around, so we are the remaining 3. This is the Sayville Running Co winning Men and Womens teams












Ok so thats all the pics for now - its giving me issues again, and I can not be bothered. Next will be the pics from Mikes Marathon, whenever I get round to it and be bothered spending time with it to have issue.









TIM TAMS

So Mike and I went to the supermarket to pick up some milk the other day. walking along and chatting away and then I realize Mike has stopped and I am just a crazy person talking to myself. I turn around to see Mike steering at a display, so I go and see what it is and this is what we see:











Thats right Tim Tams - Australians favorite cookie - its ok we can forgive them for saying that - we now have Tim Tams in the USA, so of course we had to get them - had to make sure they were just a good. - and yes they have passed the Mike test and are pretty much the real thing.
So thanks to Pepperidge Farm and their search for something new - reading the fine print it is from the real thing.

So if you send us anything you no longer have to send Tim Tams.
