this past weekend, i made a quick trip to my old stompin' grounds in charlotte. along with a quick visit with my friend teresa, i participated in the CLT Runway 5k. i saw information about this last year and was really interested in doing it. so, when i came across it this year, i decided to register for it.
we woke up early (on a saturday morning...) and headed to the airport. it wasn't such a nice day, weather-wise. it was foggy, chilly, and misty. there were 1,600 participants (which prevented us from receiving our runway 5k tshirts) ready to run/walk along the runway at the charlotte airport.
once we started, we were walking parallel to one of the runways. it was exciting seeing the planes taxi right next to us! through the fog, you could see planes landing and taking off. the terminal building was almost visible across the field. the course led us down the taxiway and around the cargo buildings back to the US Airways hangar.
it was a fun event and i would definitely do it again. hopefully next time the weather will be better and allow for better photo ops!
and thanks to my excellent (as always) host. the tikka masala and chicken salad were fantastic and yummy! and how about those shrimp tacos and tasty yo!?! YUM! (gosh, it's always about the food, isn't it?!)
