2nd easter day

this morning i woke up very early around 08:30 i was awake and put on my running clothes . i still did not decided if i would run the 10km or just 5km but well i still had the time to think about that. when i had my running clothes on and shoes i went downstairs to eat some breakfast and went out with my dog and gave him something to eat. than i left to my mom's house she was almost ready too so i went back to my place and got my bike out of my garage and went back to my mom's house she had her bike out of the garage too and we left by bike to the FBK stadion. when we arrived their we got ourselfs ready went twice to the toilet and i decided to run 5km and hopefully a fast 5km. a few people from our sunday morning running practise did also the 5km. the run was nice and a good route too this year.the whole race i was in front of my mom :-) so that was good only the last km she tried to get in front of me but it did not work out for my mom cause of her knee that started too hurt so i was first who came over the finish and than my mom. my time was 33:15 with the 5km and my mom had a time of 33:39. i'm okey with the time but i hoped that i had 32: something but well maybe next time.
after the race we talked to some friends who had a son that did run the 21km and their daughter in law runned the 10km so we talked a little bit to them and than left back home by bike. when we came back home we eat some lunch and left by car to my uncle and aunt and their two daughters in heerenveen. where we celebrated the birthday of my aunt. my other uncle and aunt with their little boy and daughter were already their when we arrived and they sat in the garden. it was nice seeing them again. we also celebrated the up coming birthday of my little nephew and a little bit of my birthday too. before diner we went to the playground with our nephew and he really liked it a lot. when we came back we had diner together. we left back home around 20:30 and were at home almost two hours later and i was tired so i went to sleep fast. well it was a nice 2nd easter day :-)
