Halloween 5k Run

Brandon and I ran a Halloween 5k
run with the dogs last weekend. It was
so much fun. American Fork puts it on and
they set it up so you have to run through the
cemetary and its at night. It was a blast and the
dogs had an awesome time.


Brutus only stopped twice. His favorite trick
is to just kill over mid run and refuse to go any further.
But we just gave him a little boost on the
shocker, nothing painful, just a little boost and he
was back up and running again. My My has her
perfect pace that she keeps the entire run.


Can I just say how hot my hubby looks in a beenie.



I ended up wearing My-My's crown and Brandon
wore Brutus's ears for the run because the kept
trying to take them off mid-stride. It was a blast.

VeGaS BaBy!!

I recently ran the Vegas Ragar Relay Race. It was
so much fun!!! Its a 24 hour no sleep adreneline rush.
There are 12 runners in the race and the 12 are broken
up into two vans with 6 in each. This is my team. They
were soo much fun to run with.
This picture is right before my first leg, which was
5.8 miles with a hill that I nicknamed "Splash Mountain"
because on the drive in we went down the hill and it
looked like we were going to drop off into the abyss,
and I got to have the pleasure of running up it.



Me, Gina, Rinda, Kevin, Ryan, Mark


Gina's sister Rinda, in the black shorts and white hat,
got to run the first night leg. We got to wear these
sexy reflector vests. And as you can tell she's so excited.


Me, Gina, and Rinda showering at the IHOP
we ate breakfast at before our last legs.
We made it!!!! Kevin, the guy with orange shorts
next to me, has a stress fracture and ran like no other,
Gina has Planters Fasciitis in her feet and still
kicked butt, and Ryan was way sick for weeks
before the race, had one of the hardest runs and
did awesome!! Mark, ran all of his times at a 6:40 a
min mile, need I say amazing!!
I was injury free, but was early on all my expected
times so I was happy with that.
So much fun!!! Thanks Tami and Mike for letting
us stay with you after the race, and Ryan and Kevin
for inviting me to run with your team!!
