Carolyn lost a glove

Julie and I just got back from our trip to run the Portland Marathon. We both finished before they closed the course and had fun telling friendly Portlanders how long a marathon is while wearing our medals around town. Our friends came down from Tacoma to watch.


We ate Sushi Pizza which was excellent.


and visited a giant Zen garden.



I said to the guy at the youth hostel where we rented our bikes, "I bet with this helmet on I don't look like a tourist at all." He reassured me lots of Portlanders wear these helmets. What do you think? Tourist or Portland Hipster?
