Run

As most of you know, my family runs quite a bit of races. My parents and sister are the crazy ones, running the Goofy run TWICE. The Goofy run is the first day you run a 1/2 marathon and the second day you run a full marathon. My parents though have gotten even crazier this upcoming January, they're doing the Dopey Run which is; 5k, 10k, 1/2, full marathon.

Our most recent race was the Pepsi Community 5k/10k. Me, Scott, Ma, Pa, Kristy, & Eric ran the 5k. Alan and Heather decided at the last moment to run the 10k. It was a great run...except for the fact that it started at 9:30 AM!! It was hot and I was dying, but, in the end it was all worth it. I got a PR and 2nd PLACE!!

2nd Place in age group

I may have complained to Scott the whole time about how hot it was and that I was dying, it felt like 100 degrees out there! For those of you that don't know, I'm not a hot weather person, I get dehydrated fast, I get that from my Dad. 

SPEAKING OF PARENTS: My dad got 2nd place also, and my mom got 3rd place in their age group!!

 Kristy my sister adopted a dog recently from a high kill shelter, he was saved and put in a foster home and Kristy saw him and adopted Rufus. He got to run his first 5k! Although he kept trying to say hi to everyone and stopped in any shade he could find. He did good though!!

 As for Scott, he is so nice for staying with me during these runs. We recently did the Dino Half Marathon in Vernal and loved it! It's so fun spending these times together running.

After the Pepsi 5k

We now have our 3rd half marathon in July in Wyoming which we're pretty pumped about, also 2 5k's we're all signed up for; the 4th of July in Provo and the Dirty Dash in September. Both really great runs. We also adopted a puppy recently that I will start training to run with me once it gets bigger, as of right now he's only 7 1/2 weeks old.
