5. Get onto the I-15N from the 93/95 to get on the 93 to get the Rachel, Nevada (the race site)....OOPS! missed that one.
We left the house at 9:30PM for our midnight run with aliens! Can I tell you just HOW excited I was for this? I even made the girls wear costumes. In all of our preparations we forgot to mapquest the race site. We thought the provided directions were enough....well 2 hours later in the wrong direction we realized that wasn't enough....it left us some pretty unhappy space girls...

We cheered up a little bit after we put on a fun outfits....I guess it was the thought that counts...

my guess is that the reason you got lost was because you were bound to be abducted. from many years watching the xfiles i would want to avoid an alien abduction experience at all cost. i bet the aliens were behind the race in the first place. why go look for humans to abduct when they can just come to you? glad you are back.
In the olden days we used maps! I'll buy you one. :)
You girls looked cute. I am sure you would have won the race and wooed some cute aliens.
LOVE the outfit you alien hotties!!!
Those outfits are the best!!!!
Ha, I love those outfits. You guys are so much fun. SO sad about going the wrong way. But at least you got to still have fun girl time . . . going the wrong way. But still.
I hope next year it goes much better for you.
So...I was just thinking about this and remember when we talked about this months ago!!! I was so excited for you!!! The outfits really are great!!
I'm building up my run time! I'm psyched - my mile pace has improved by like a minute or so!
One day, when I'm good enough and fast enough! We're racing together!! PLEASE!!!!
That is absolutely hilarious and sad at the same time of course! Love you!
Awesome, I love it all!
