5k Turkey Trot!


I did it! I accomplished my goal. I ran the 5k Turkey Trot this weekend. I decided I would shoot for it to motivate me to keep up the exercise. It felt so great! For those of you that think it’s crazy and irresponsible to run while almost 6 months pregnant…don’t worry I was very careful. I read a lot about the risks and advantages and decided it was something I wanted to do. And when I say I “ran” the 5K I mean jogged so lightly that if you were speed walking you could easily keep up. Haha. I just wrapped up my belly and went for it! Now I need to think of a new goal to keep me motivated to exercise...any ideas?

It was a blast- both my sisters Karen and Mary joined me. It was Mary’s first 5k! YEAH MARY! I’m so proud of you! Her first and hopefully not her last!!I loved her company. After the race we went out for breakfast and had good old fun sister time.



Speaking of sisters…my beautiful sister-in-law Cec went through the temple this weekend!! She is leaving for her mission to Spain in February. It was so amazing for Pete and I to share the special day with her. She looked so beautiful! I love you Cec!! Congrats

Definitely not my last! I am hooked now. Me and Kim are already talking about running one sometime together. We should have invited her to this one. What were we thinking?! I guess none of us just were thinking. :) It was a blast though!
