Celebrate Good Times!

Last year, the Sunflower Relay (our favorite run of the year) was cancelled because of Covid, but this year, the wonderful folks from Methow Trails put in lots of planning, safety protocols, staggered starts, etc. to allow runners to enjoy the fields of gold that show up in the Methow Valley every spring. 

As this summer is our 25th anniversary, we took the chance to celebrate amidst the sunflowers today. 

Team Relay Leg Descriptions: 

Leg 1 - 2.2 miles, easy - would be good for younger or beginner runner 
Leg 2 - 5.6 miles, easy - flat 
Leg 3 - 5.9 miles, moderate w/ hills
Leg 4 - 6.5 miles, moderate w/ a steep climb
Leg 5 - 6.6 difficult - strong runner required 

I ran extra legs (all the highlighted ones above 14.4 miles) so I could get in my 13+ miles in today in your honor. I will share more reflections in the next few days from the run, but today, I am just wanting to celebrate you, celebrate our (almost 25 years of marriage), and celebrate Cazden's black belt today.
