Car time

Ellie will be spending a lot of time in the car this weekend. Brian and I are keeping our fingers crossed that she is a good traveler!
We are going to Springfield, Ill., on Saturday morning to meet up with our former graduate school classmates and celebrate a five-year reunion. We'd hoped to stay out there for a visit with everyone, but the event overlaps with a 30K (18.6-mile) race that Brian has spent months training for. So... after a few hours in Springfield, we're turning around and driving to Indianapolis. We're staying in a hotel there overnight and then getting up early Sunday for Brian's race. I just hope Ellie lets Brian get some sleep Saturday night before his run. It's going to be a tough race for him regardless because her sleep schedule (or lack thereof) has cut into his training... but he and our friend Rob are mostly just hoping to finish. And Ellie and I will be cheering him on! Wish us all luck on this packed weekend :)
