Bridge Run Weekend

This weekend was Cooper River Bridge Run in Charleston. Walter and I have been going since we moved back to Charlotte but this was the first year that we trained and were planning to run together. 
Friday night we ate dinner at Halls Chophouse on King and it was amazing. The food was delicious and the service far exceeded our expectations. 


Saturday morning was the run and we got up super early. No shuttle from the hotel so we had a car pick us up and drive us to the Mt.P side. It was a beautiful 68 degrees and once the sun came up it was a gorgeous Charleston day. 





We finished in under an hour which was our goal time. Walter did fantastic and finished in 55:14 and I finished in 58:02. He smoked me. I looked up at the start line from starting my watch and he was gone. He took off running. I am so proud of him for holding his pace. He is a machine. 
After the race we headed to roof top bar at Market Pavillion to hang out with our friends. It was so nice and sunny and the views were great. 
We bailed after an afternoon of shopping and fun and had dinner in our own at Hanks Seafood...one of our favorites. It was great to be back in Charleston and visit our favorite places and a great weekend for us to reconnect!
