Saturday, May 21st 2011, I accomplished one of my life long goals. I completed a Half Marathon!! This is the only picture Dustin was able to get before the camera battery died. I will get more pictures posted when I get them from my Mom and Emma. I ran it with Patti (my mother-in-law) and Kati (Emma's sister). It was mine and Patti's first half marathon. It felt so good to complete a goal I have always had. It feels good to run too (mentally and physically). Thanks to Patti and Kati for training with me and experiencing this with me. I will post about my official time when I get it. (in the pic- I am almost out of the picture- in all black)
April 30th was also a first- Me, my Dad, and Emiko ran a 5k together. It was a lot of fun. Richfield did a run for heroes and we thought it would be fun to do. I apparently still have some competitiveness in me- I ditched them in the run and just targeted one girl at a time to pass. I ended up coming in 5th out of the women. I was about 100 yds behind the 3rd place girl. It was a cold day but totally worth it! Thanks Dad and Emiko! I can't wait for the WORLDS FAIR!!!!
The grandkids running in with Grandpa- PRICELESS!!
Me, Anthony, Taylor and Larry(?) running in with Emiko.

You are amazing! I don't know how you do it, especially in the cold. You are great at running, volleyball, basketball, and soccer. What don't you do?
