HEAVEN on EARTH
Ohhhhhhhhhh, if only I could go back to Amelia Island, Florida where the Zooma Women's race series event took place this past weekend!!!!!!! It was as beautiful as the picture above looks!!!! Reality simply did not exist while staying at the Ritz Carlton. Beautiful weather, sunshine, beach, ocean, wine, and surrounded by inspiring women......... Seriously, what more could one ask for?!!!!!!!!!
What about this T-shirt?!?!!! Cool 70's vibe, right? LOVE IT!!!!
I am not as skilled as my friend Lisa with taking group selfies...... I was aiming for a group selfie with the back ground being the ocean....... ummmmmmm, not even close!!! All you see is us and the boardwalk that we were standing on!!! LOL! :D
Below, was our group that came down Friday to stay at the Ritz..... these ladies were AMAZING!!!! You can't help but have fun and feel supported when you have these ladies around you!!!!!
This pic actually includes EVERYONE that came for the Zooma run from my local area of Valdosta, GA!!!!! How cool is it to have Valdosta being representing from such a large group!!!!! These ladies ROCKED their races!!!!!!
Anddddddd, this is Wendy...... she is GREAT!!! She ran the 12k, therefore, she was clearly going to finish prior to all of us completing the half marathon........she was instructed to have wine for all of us at the finish line......anndddddd, as you can tell by the picture, she did just that!!! Talk about a friend that you can count on!!! LOL! :D
Below, is a picture of 4 of us who have children that attend the same school!!!!! For some, it was their first ever half marathon!!! How awesome is that!!! I so remember how awesome it felt to complete such a goal that I worked hard to achieve!
These ladies are amazing!!!!!! They rocked the half marathon!!!! :)
Here are some fellow Zooma Ambassadors...... I missed the photo op with all the Ambassadors present at Amelia Island, but was luckily to snag this photo:)
I could really stay here forever........ it was such a relaxing atmosphere.....
Well, gotta run...... have to help my son study for a spelling test...... will have another post follow where I break down the half marathon...... and, I PR'D!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOooooooHOoooooooooo!!! In fact, I think almost everyone that went had a PR!!!! YAY!!!!! Go Us!!!!
