Today, Michigan!!! This was the inaugural race for the Lions of Michigan, "Eye Care, Do You?" 5K, 8K and 1/2 marathon. We drove out yesterday early and were able to find our motel pretty easily. It was me, Brian and Jenn! We found our hotel pretty easily and drove an hour further up the crease of the Michigan mitten to the race start to pick up our packets. We found the organizers hanging around and found also that there would be a small turnout and that only the first 5


IOWA!!! NUMBER 4
Iowa is beautiful! Yesterday, Brian and I drove the 5.5 hours to Grinnell, Iowa for a race and it was one farm after another for 4 hours. Jenn couldn't make it because she had to work, so it was time for the two of us and it was really nice. We found our hotel and 3 minutes away was the race start. I always like to do that...know where I'm going, navigate the area...We found a fantastic restaurant in this tiny little Iowa town called Relish, SOOOOO GOOOOD!!! I ate well,
