Half Marathon

For my 25th birthday my goal and present to myself was to run a 1/2 marathon ( I guess it was also my new years resolution too - so check!) This past weekend was by birthday and the day after on Saturday I, with Steven's Dad - Mac, Brittany Park - Friend, and Brittany Welton - Future Sister in Law all ran the 1/2 marathon. It was a beautiful day. We couldn't ask for a better day. Started at 7:30 and ran the entire thing. My time was 2 hrs and 45 minutes. For my first one not to shabby. They say the goal on the first 1/2 should be to finish and that was my goal. On my next one in the fall it will be to get a better time. Probably in 2:30. Plus Steven is going to run that one with me so I will have a constant training partner this time!

If anyone else wants to run the one in the fall let me know!! It is very rewarding and lots of fun. Not lying!




I guess I should also mention what a great husband I have... After the race he got us a couples massage for my birthday. I think that is the ticket to not being so sore so I told him I need one after every race. Not any surprise he just laughed.

Vegas Baby!


Well it has been a little while since we have been on here. Just to catch you up we went to Las Vegas over Steven's spring break. While there we saw the Grand Canyon which neither of us had ever seen before. It was amazing and we cant wait to go back. We also were there for the beginning of March Madness. Steven was super excited about this because he got to bet on the first rounds of games. I don't think he won any on them but it was still fun to do. I guess at the end of the day all of the statistics don't tell you how good a team is going to play!!
