We headed out early to meet Dad at mile 1. It was a little cool at first, but the sun was shining, and it warmed up quickly!
After getting a quick hug from Dad as he ran past, we moved on to mile 10. Thankfully, WE didn't have to walk 9 miles to get there. However, by the time Brad hit mile 10, Nora was ready for a nap. She had her feet all kicked up and her eyes were getting sleepy.
So, we headed back to the hotel for a nap and for lunch, promising we'd head to the finish line after she woke up. Here she is after nap time, cooling down in just a diaper with her favorite books and a peanut butter sandwich. Life is good!
Once she was rested and fed, we did as promised and walked over to the finish line. Nora had fun hanging out in the shade listening to the music and the announcers call in some of the runners. She was dancing up a storm to the music!
When Daddy came running through, I passed her off to him so she could cross the finish line with him. In true Nora fashion, she cried like she was being kidnapped. I can't wait to see the official finish line photo!
We headed to the TNT tent where Brad soaked his feet in ice water and then shared a snack with Nora.
After some more rest time at the hotel, we headed to the Wildhorse Saloon for the after party. I guess this is Nora's version of a silly party trick. The lighting is terrible, but I can not resist this picture!
Once we ate, drank, and were merry with Brad's TNT team, we headed back to the hotel. Nora rode through downtown Nashville with her feet up. Sweet sleepy girl.
It was a long, tiring day but a great day at the same time.
