In the News!

Mother's Day weekend we ran a 5k sponsored by my friend Angie's Mommy and Me Fitness program. It's a nice race on our local bike trail and she also has a mile fun run that the kids did this year. After being sick with a sinus infection for the 2 1/2 weeks before the race, I was happy with how I did...clocking myself at 26:30. It was fun to run with some of the girls from MOPS.

I love that the whole family can get into these races and I'll be looking for some more 5ks that have the fun runs. Ethan was pumped to go out and win this one, and probably would have had he known where to turn around (he still came in third after playing catch up). I'm thinking Natalie might be the one who becomes a runner...she's already run 3/4 of a mile on two separate occasions! I'll be so excited if we have a couple more runners in the family (and, of course, I'll be happy even if we don't)!
