all american & atlantan 4th

a few fun pics from our 4th of July celebration in Atlanta.  we watched the Lenox Square fireworks from a highrise condo, and it was awesome!  it rained outside but the show went on and was really cool. 

richard and i also ran the Peachtree Road Race on the morning of the 4th - an Atlanta tradition.  it's the largest 10k in the world with over 65,000 runners.  we knew it was going to be hilly, hot and humid, but we totally underestimated all three.  no amount of training in cool Colorado - even running at 9,000 feet altitude in Crested Butte - could have prepared us for that race!  i'm proud to say we finished but no times will be recorded here!  our next attempt will have to be back home.
