Off and running...




I've been trying to get it together as far as my work out routine goes, the "I've had 3 babies" excuse is getting a bit dated.. especially since my baby is now 5! So, I've been training for a 5K run for the last few months. Last Saturday was the race and I'm happy to report that I didn't barf... or walk so in my book, it was a success! haha! My friend and neighbor Charis signed us up for the Tacoma St. Patty's day race. It was so much fun. There were about 2,000 people, all ages, shapes and sizes. Many of them wore costumes! It was pouring down rain, but that just added to the excitement. We had such a great time! I'm at about a 10 minute mile so I'd like to work on improving that. I'll stick with 5K's for now. I think that I'll do another race next month with our Y. We'll see! I'm surprised at how much I like it!

way to go on the blogging marathon as well, nice work catching up! I'm afraid by blog has run out of gas, or I have run out of gas for the blog...whatever, I can barely get a post up anymore. But look at you! I'm so proud of you for running a marathon that's awesome! I don't think I could run to the end of my street so am very impressed :o) Can't wait to see you in a week or so, yay! I will not, however, be joining you for a run when you're down. A massage sounds much more to my liking! ha ha :)
