Huff Puff ... hey there's the finish line!



We 'competed' in the 10k road 'race', known as the Bolder Boulder.

Benjamin placed 34,008th out of 49,757 finishers with a blistering pace of 13:24 minutes/mile.

I placed 34,008th, with the same blistering pace. Yes, he beat me.

The winner's time was 28:17 so we need to shave only a bit over an hour off our race to take home the price next year!

Happy Thursday!

Turquoise

Benjamin and I snuck away to Tulum, Mexico for Spring Break. Tulum is about 2 hours south of Cancun and we stayed at an eco-resort with no electricity. We slept in a screen-sided palapa and woke to the sounds of surf and wildlife. Delightful.

Terrific Tulum


The Tulum Mayan ruins were spectacularly perched on a cliff at sea's edge. Fascinating to think of the Spanish sailing up the shore to encounter the lovely settlement!
