hey hey. so yea Paris was awesome. we got there friday afternoon, and drove past the eiffel tower which was huge!! since my race wasnt before friday morning i had the rest of the day to do whatever, stacie had a soccer game so i decided to go watch that first. after her game i saw the beginning of my brother's game while i waited for stacie to shower and get ready and stuff, then when she was ready we went to downtown paris together. we went to the top of the eiffel tower which was awesome. the best part was that this was at night so the entre city was lit up. it was by far one of the most beatiful things i had ever seen. and i got to see it with stacie which was even better.
So then the next morning, i wake up at like 9.30 to get to the course we're running on. first we walk the course to get a feel of it and then the girls run 1st before the guys. my race went allright i guess. i started of waaaayyyy to fast which was kinda stupid seeing as how the first 2 km were pretty steep uphill. but oh well, i finished 19th out of like 70-something ppl so i'm happy. my 1st goal for the race was to actually finish it =P since i pulled out of my last one (the one in london i mentioned).
So then we take the 8 HOUR BUSRIDE back to he hague which wasnt as bad as the way over, cuz stacie had asked my coach if she could sit on my bus (soccer and guys volleyball was on one bus, and cross country and girls volleyball on the other one). so that was kewl.
So yea that was my weekend. i got home saturday around 9, and i was thinking about going out but i was exhausted so i just stayed in.
But yea anywyas, i gotta get going, practice starts soon.
Hope everyone had a great one.
