Wordless Wednesday: Trail and Treat 5K

 Catwoman, Robin and Batman in the Batmobile, Riddler and Sound effects (her shirt says "BAM!" "POW!" "ZAP!" etc... It looked awesome!)
We missed the costume competition. :(
Batman and Robin got up before 5AM. They were both bundled up so well in the Batmobile that they went to sleep! It was only 26 degrees!
The Riddler pushed the Batmobile.
I secretly wished I was riding in the Batmobile taking a nap instead of running! It was so cold!! Michael ran with me to push me since it was my first official 5K. When he runs with me he runs at LEAST 2 minutes per mile slower than his pace. I really appreciate it and I do tend to run faster. My first 2 miles were about 30 seconds per mile faster than my average pace... and then I died. I probably would have stopped running and started walking if Michael hadn't been with me. I finished the race in 30:26, which was 17 seconds per mile faster than my average pace.
 Batman and Robin in (almost) full costume.
Happy Halloween!
