NRR stands for Non-Running Related post :)
Our wedding day was beautiful! Here are a few pics!

We had a perfect wedding day and a wonderful honeymoon in Hawaii. We spent 2 weeks hanging out on Oahu, Maui and the Big Island. I did have an ulterior motive for wanting to visit the Big Island at the end of our trip...to watch the Ironman World Championships, of course!


It was amazing being there! We got to Kona in time to see the leaders finish the bike and head out on the run. After watching the first 20 or so competitors come in, we took a break for lunch and eventually made our way to the finish area to see the winners. Such amazing athletes. Not enough to make me want to start training for an Ironman (I guess I would have to try-a-tri first, lol!), but I did come away with renewed enthusiam for running. I registered for the Angus Glen 10k on November 2. I am definitely not expecting to set a PB with my lack of training, but we'll see what I can do. I ran about every other day in Hawaii, but I also put on about 5lbs from all of the honeymoon eating! Delicious food, but I am paying for it now!

Okay, so I guess this post ended up being a little bit running related :)
