Over Memorial Day weekend, people from all over the world converge to Boulder to enjoy the city and run/race the 10 Km Bolder Boulder. This year’s race attracted about 50,000 participants of all ages and ability. The top three spots in the men’s open race where unofficially claimed by a Moroccan, Ethiopian and a Boulder local. The boys and I rode our bikes over to watch the thousands of runners and circus of spectators. It was really cool and to top it off Boulder holds the Boulder Creek Festival this weekend as well. There are so many people downtown right now you can barely ride your bike. What impressed me the most was our six year old neighbor kid Christopher. Not only did he run the Bolder Boulder this morning but he rode his bike with us for another 7 or 8 miles. All he needs to do now is go swim at the pool and he’ll have completed a six year olds version of a triathlon. I don’t know where he found all the energy. Sid was falling asleep on the bike while we were riding.
