The Smith Family: Women's Running Magazine 1/2 Marathon & 5k Run

This morning, we all woke up bright and early (5 am!) to head over to St. Pete for the Women's Running Magazine 1/2 Marathon & 5k Run. I ran in the 5k and it was an amazing race! We heard there were between 4,000 & 5,000 runners and the event was very impressive. I am still no speed demon yet I ran 20 seconds faster than the last run so very happy about that. Sage was such a good sport as we woke her up close to leaving time (5:45 am) and she kind of cried. After she was dressed and ready to go, she was in such a good mood. After the run, we hung around until about 11:30 for the post-race party and awards. We won a raffle prize....a basket from Saks 5th Avenue! I went up to get the basket and realized it was mostly men's cologne, lotion, etc (my luck...huh!). The announcer asked what I was going to do with it and I said "Give it to my husband". He asked "Where is he?" and I pointed and said "He's right there with our baby". Then he asked "How old is your baby?" and I said "9 mos". Everyone clapped for us...especially when Landon held up Sage and everyone saw her. It was a fun moment! Arriving at the race around 6:45 am...
