Brian and the girls did a race this morning, the
Oakland Running Festival. Brian did the half marathon. (!) The kids did the "fun run" - a quick 150 yard dash past roaring crowds and the big finish line. The Oakland Raiders cheerleaders were there, the kids got a space blanket, t-shirt, snacks, and a medal. And total bragging rights.
Brian ran really well. He kept a super even pace, looked easy and comfortable the whole time, and got to draft behind
this guy for the last 3 miles.
All in all a fun, well-organized race. Nice work, Oakland!
Of course there were pictures:

Awesome! I love this kids run thing!
...Also, is Brian wearing spandex? :-/
I assure you they are regular shorts, they're just grossly sweaty.
Maybe I'll be rocking the spandex in the next race. Time will tell.
Phew.
