So Jennie and I were planning on running a 5K this weekend for Red Ribbon week! We registered at the BRHD (Bear River Health Department) and paid $8. (that’s a whole weeks worth of food P.S.) But unfortunately on the day of the race we left the map at home, so we drove all over Logan in freezing cold snowing weather looking for the Starting line but never found it. So we went home, got the map, and realized that the race was actually in Hyde Park. Which we thought was an actual Park…

Yes, we are both natural blonds.

So then we call up Jennie’s Mom and she informs us that Hyde Park is South if Logan. (its not) And we drive all the way to the Route 66 gas station with our faces glued to the windows searching for any sign(pun) of Hyde Park only to find it is actually North of Logan, according to the phone book in the Route 66 gas station. You think we would have given up by now but we didn’t! We went all the way to Hyde Park and walked in ice blowing wind to the location of the race which was over and didn’t even get our t-shirts because they ran out and gave our away.

On the flip side we did get some good rolls, but we hadn’t eaten a big breakfast so anything would have tasted good by then. We told the people in charge what had happened and they gave us little cards to pick up our t-shirts later and offered us some frozen fruit which we didn’t want because we were cold.

So that’s the story of how Hyde Park hid (haha!) from us and deprived us of our chance to run in the 5k for red ribbon week.
