Seattle Rock and Roll Marathon








Our Seattle trip for the Rock and Roll marathon was alot of fun. Tori and I got to see a lot of neat things. We went to the Muesem of Flight, Woodland Park Zoo, Pacific Science Center, Pike Market Place, Tillicum Village, A habor cruise, Seattle Aquarium, Space Needle and I also ran the Half marathon. It was a short 5 days, but we got to see a lot of Seattle. We also saw Mount Rainer which is only visible 90 days of the year. It was beautiul weather the whole time. No rain! My half marathon went way better than expected! I ran a 1:59:43! I recommend this marahton to everyone. It was probally the prettiest run I have done so far. Tori's favorite part of the trip was the seattle aquarium. She loved the sea otters.

Tori also liked going to Pike Market to get Cherries. The Cherries were so good! We also got to eat some russian food. Tori thought it was just as good as her grandmothers! The first picture is of Tori and I on top of the Space Needle. If you look close enough you can see the medal from the marathon. I had run the marathon that morning. That explains why I do not look so good in the picture! I was really sad that we had to leave before Natalie and Dean got to Seattle, it would have been nice to see them. I also found out one of my friends had arrived in Seattle on the day I left, and I had not seen her in 2 years. Oh well what can you do?
