We are famous.......

Last year, we ran the Carlsbad 5000 - it's touted to be the world's fastest 5k. I think it's because most of the elite runners come out for this ...... which is nice to be able to see them up close in their element but they skew the results. They only give medals to the first 250 finishers. So my chances of ever getting a medal are diminished.

While we are in the beer garden after the event, a photog snapped our picture.

Over the weekend, our friend Emily e-mailed us this:
"OK, I just got a brochure in the mail for the Carlsbad 5000 and, no joke, the picture that we took as a group is in it. It's the one with, from left, Carlos, Maria, Heather, Brownie, Elle and then me and Sissy in the back a bit. I laughed so hard. The pic is about the size of a postage stamp so every looks GREAT ;-)"

Here's the full size picture for your enjoyment: http://www.carlsbad5000.com/elite/galleries/cbad/2008/index.html

Wish us luck - we're signed up for it again (April 5th) if anyone else is interested!
