Lee Runs, I Watch and Snap

Lee ran the Derby mini marathon like a champ this weekend. I was proud.

And since it wasn't raining too much, I went downtown to watch. I went to 4th and Breckenridge to watch Lee hit the 10 mile marker. When he recognized me and waved I figured he must be doing pretty well to have that kind of brain function at mile 10.

Once Lee past I took some time to snap some pictures around downtown Louisville.

Lampton Baptist Church (I think.)

The gate outside Presentation Academy.
019
Calvary Episcopal Church (I'm pretty sure.)
022
Library

I'm quite proud of the photos, but then again having something pretty to photograph and a good balance of sun and cloud pretty much does all the work for you.

By the time I made it to the finish line, things were so crowded I couldn't see anyone in the race, but apparently I walked by as Lee was running in, so I guess that's good timing? Wandering around trying to find Lee after the finish provided some more photo ops along the river.

Yay, congrats to Lee! I'm very impressed! (One of my friends was supposed to run the Derby half-marathon, too, but uh, forgot to register. And then registration was full. Oops.)

Registration fills up fast, but there's always next year!
