Jessie had an amazing finishing kick! It was so good, that she didn't stop or slow down for us, and we had to book it to keep up with her! I admire that kind of "let's get this done" attitude after doing an exhausting, sun-drenched, heat-soaked 5 mile run on very little sleep. She rocked it!
After we officially crossed the finish line, it was time to get our free beer! I thought it would be Michelob Ultra, but Sea Dog was the sponsor. I'm not familiar with their beer, so I had a Blueberry Ale. Not half bad!
After taking a team photo, we all decided to head back to the Navy base to check in to our rooms and crash for a bit. A shower and nap was definitely in order, and they were perfect! Although, to be honest, it was quite hard to want to get out of bed after that nap! My body is saying, "Hey, you owe me lots more sleep!"
Just had a delicious dinner with Heather, Jessie, and Brian. Saw Josh & Andy right before we left Blue Heaven, and we all chatted about today's runs. As much as Key West is a "party your butt off" kind of town, but the only party I want is with the back of my eye lids.
The end to a perfect weekend for you. Anxious to hear if you won any awards!
