A very, very long over due post!!!

Long, over due, updates, on marathon, and reunions, and some other stuff.


Ryker and his sport of the week. We were at a family reunion, and he decided he loves golf, well, that lasted awhile. Then baseball hit, and now it is back to hockey. I secretly love hockey and the fights, the checking, the naughty boxes, but do I want Ryker to play? Well, that might be another story. Ryker said "Mom, I will be safe, it is not dangerous."

This sign made me laugh so hard, and it is so true. My husband has been my rock, and I love him so much. He has supported me in so many ways. All I can say is, ready to start training again? Thanks for everything Mike. It is not easy being married to an insane exerciser, so I have heard.

This is at my high school reunion, with my high school bestie, Annie Barney. It was fun to see everyone, but kinda weird at the same time too. I mean they were doing things, (drinking and other stuff) that was illegal last time I saw them, a part of me wanted to call the cops on them, then I remembered we are all 28, or 29! Mike was a trooper and came and stayed as long as I wanted to.


Hailey after her race, wow, she did sooo good. She ran a mile in 12 minutes and 20 seconds or something close to that. I need to be better about posting things with a fresh memory.

Me and Hailey after our races! I hope we can have the opportunity to do a lot more of these together!

My very own fan club. What awesome friends to come all the way to see a slow poke like me. It was sooo much fun having you there, thanks for coming.

This is my LITTLE sister Jodie. She is sooo funny. She plays basketball at Weber State and is in the best shape, and she could not understand why I would do something like this....no one does, unless they do it!
I loved her sign though.

This is the picture of the 91 buses lining up at 4:15 in the morning to take us crazies up the canyon.

And this is Hailey getting her kit the day before, I was so proud of her. I may have cried getting our kits, but no one saw, I hope.
I cannot believe I actually did this thing called a marathon, and that I am alive to talk about it. I want to do many more, but we will see. I am looking forward to 10/01/10, that is the day that registration begins for this again. This time, I will do it for different reasons, to beat my time, to let myself know that I am NOT a one hit wonder, and to prove that I CAN!!!

Weight check:
I was completely naughty again, and gained all the weight back a few weeks ago. But since I like to think of myself as a hard core person, I am back down to 138, and feeling okay. My goal is to be a 135 by Halloween. Can I do it? I will let you know. But I will say that I love the way my pants are fitting, good thing because it is cold here!!!
