I’ll try to keep this brief and let the pictures do the talking. Friday I ran 17 miles and felt good. Saturday I ran 2 miles and felt like bricks. But after that run I got on a plane and flew to San Antonio for the Lone Star Emmy Awards Gala where we were nominated for 5 Emmys!
Looking for the basement at the Alamo.
Then got all gussied up for the brew ha ha.
I wanted to have a duck lipped selfie.
Then went to the ballroom for the festivities where I met a couple guys in nude tuxedos.
This one is for the frosted fitness blogger lady!
Ran into some of my friends who were also nominated for Emmys. Here’s my buddy Emily Reppert – host of Chevy Hometown Kids on Fox Sports Southwest.
I almost wore that same dress…man, would that have been embarrassing.
Out of the 5 nominations, we took home 2 Emmys!
Pretty cool night!
Since we won 2, I got to make 2 speeches. I think my jokes were funny. Others might not be as amused. haha.
Saying something important, I’m sure.
The next morning I ran a 7 miler around the city. Had breakfast with a friend, then flew back to Dallas. Ran into Nitro from American Gladiators at the airport. 2nd time I’ve run into him, so figured it was a sign to have a chat with him. Very nice guy. Now he promotes the Gladiator Rock n Run. Worlds colliding!
Right before we went through the gauntlet!
Once home, the wife and I went to get some veggie burgers.
So my veggie burger wouldn’t get lost, they branded it.
I then met up with a bunch of my runner friends for a big tree lighting ceremony. I brought one of my Emmys, people liked taking photos with it.
We don’t always run, we sometimes have other fun.
Yes, it was a Christmas tree lighting. I don’t know why they did it, it’s not even Thanksgiving yet! But they lit up the whole square as well. All the trees are lit, looks nice!
I’m so totally lit right now.
Obviously, it was a tremendous weekend. I’m still processing it all. But I’m also very thankful. I work hard, and appreciate the recognition.
I had to give the golden lady a kiss.
Anyway, how was your weekend? Which American Gladiator would you like to meet? Tell me something good that happened to you recently!
