Catching Up- Post #1

Ok- I am playing catch up with my blog. It may take a few days, but better late than never.


Almost a year ago I set out with a goal to run a 1/2 marathon, not knowing what to expect or if I could actually do it. Well- Less than 1 year later me and my sisters (who participated in this with me) have done a 5K, 10K, 1/2 marathon, and a marathon relay! All Together!
And while it has been fun.... I have learned I don't love to run and it is still very hard for me. I don't think I will be signing up for any races anytime soon. There is another 1/2 marathon in Scottsdale in Jan. we have been considering- we'll see.
Last weekend Me, Becky, Lorrie, Whitney, and Whitney's friend Stephanie did a marathon relay- the only way I will ever do a marathon- we all do 5.2 miles :)
It was super cold in the morning, but then it warmed up.

I love to watch "The Biggest Loser", and starting next week is a new season. There is a lady from Eagle Mountain competing- the Purple Team. She was there with her trainers running together. We got to meet and talk with her, she was very nice- so we need to all cheer her on. The show had already taped and she couldn't tell us what happened or how far she went, only the season Finale is in Dec.
We weren't allowed to pose for pictures with her, but we could take pics of her from afar
She is on the left, her trainer on the right


But I did get a picture with her trainer, who was also very nice.



This is our team after the race. We didn't win (or come close), but we all did good. Thanks to Brittany and Brian for making our sign and cheering us on.

Yay for us! Look at everything we've accomplished in the past year - I wouldn't have expected that either, it's amazing what we can do if we (or Lyndsey) set the goal!
