Equipped with my mountain bike, knapsack, iPhone and a cowbell, I jammed through the course, provided some race fuel for Danica and my cousin here and there, and just had a blast meeting up with, cheering and taking some pics of my friends and family running the race.
Speaking of pics, here is a sampling. Great racing day, overcast throughout, 60's...perfect.

This pic of Danica and I cracks me up!
Great job everyone. God willing, see you all next year!

Way to get out there and shake that cow bell!
Nice job cheering and supporting all the runners. You'll be out there with them next year.
Hey! Thanks for cheering everyone on! I saw you out there, but since I haven't met you in person before, you may have been confused about the girl who yelled "Burger!" at around the 8/9 mile? Lol.
looks like it was a very fun day :) awesome job being out there for all your friends, its not an easy job spectating!!!
Thanks for the fun photos! Feels like I was right there
You yelling at her cracks me up.
way to go, cheerleader. it's already tough enough to read/hear about running when you're benched! looks like a fun time though and i know all your friends were glad you were there.
man it was nice to have the unexpected cheering especially since I was kind of hurting from the very first step. Can't wait until you make your comeback!
**I gotta have more cowbell, baby!**
Great job being the cheering squad! Pics are fantastic! Don't worry, you'll be with them soon. :)
