Run Mommy, Run!

Since I had Carley I knew I had to get back in shape. And what better way to do it than run. So off I went with the brilliant idea of training for a 5K with less than 2 months to do it. This past Saturday I stood on the start line (not having competed in anything since high school) very nervous. Off I went with the blow of a horn and guess what? I ran 10 minutes faster than I ever trained! Woo hoo! My brothers ran with me. Erik got 2nd overall, Tom got 7th, and I finished without croaking! A pretty successful Saturday I have to say.

A congratulations kiss from my biggest cheerleader! I asked Danielle at the end of the day if she had fun at the race and she said "Never give up mommy".
